"The 2019 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colle Vota is intense, trading grace for power in this vintage, with a burst of dried black cherries, dusty sage, roses and Indian spice forming its bouquet. This splashes across the palate, spicy with ultra-ripe wild berry fruits that saturate, expertly balanced by a core of zesty acidity. The 2019 leaves a staining of primary concentration...

"Showing a distinctive bouquet with cherry, dried raspberry, watermelon and sweet cucumber, this wine was released in March 2024. The Pian dell'Orino 2020 Rosso di Montalcino (with just 5,683 bottles produced) is an open-knit expression with a friendly and accessible side. It delivers balanced freshness against a firm structural backbone, and both contribute to the wine's general brightness and richness."...

“The 2023 Galatrona,100% Merlot, is soft, plush and sensual. Dark blue/purplish fruit, cloves, new leather, menthol and licorice all meld together in the glass. Soft, caressing contours shape this mid-weight, understated vintage of the estate's flagship wine. The 2023 is not a huge Galatrona but is instead a wine that impresses with its finesse. This is a step up from...

"The floral aromas are spellbinding, with aromas of violets, lilacs, orange peel, raspberries, rose petals, and some oranges. It’s medium- to full-bodied with crunchy and open-grain tannins that are creamy and caressing. It’s endless in the finish. Crunchy and energetic. A wine that is thoughtful and gives you such great pleasure. Such purity. It’s like eating perfectly ripened grape must....

"The 2023 Gabbro, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, is shaping up to a gem. Aromatic, savory and bursting with varietal character, the 2023 has it all. The style is one of tension and focus, with less of the opulence proprietor Fabio Chiarelotto preferred in his early days. Then again, the Tuscan coast provides plenty of textural intensity of its own. Cool blue-toned...

"More open, slightly darker and more foresty initially, this is a more muscular wine and also a blunter weapon to be unsheathed for meatier dishes and colder nights. Smoky, sylvan and fertile, this is a more traditional style with a shorter, but broader attack, and I like its hearty attack and sense of gusto." 18.5/20 Points, Matthew Jukes

"This is an amazingly floral and earthy wine with pure, rose petal and cherry blossom hints on the nose, bounded by superb rigidity on its flanks. There is a sensationally voluminous palate here, and the experience is amazingly long. Somehow, it maintains control throughout, travelling directly and steadily across the palate, never wavering or changing pace. Relentless, beautiful and resonant,...

"The Fèlsina 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Colonia is a special wine. This vintage was a little tight and closed when I tasted it, but Colonia has a solid track record for a long bottle evolution. The bouquet brings dark fruit, rosemary, cherry and an especially sharp or chiseled mineral note that really is this wine's lasting signature. There are...

Deep ruby in colour with bright highlights softened by slight traces of purple. An intense, ethereal bouquet, with the liquorice, roses and thyme alongside warm spices. Recommended with red meat, game and mature cheeses. The recommended serving temperature is 17-18 degrees.

"This is a young wine with terrific depth and layers of fruit. It’s full-bodied with notes of eucalyptus, lavender and sage and hints of matchsticks and oranges. It’s linear and tight at the end, with an energetic finish. Very Saffredi in nature." 99, James Suckling
