"Serralunga d’Alba. Very pale ruby. Stunning nose of crushed raspberry and stony, savoury notes. Lots of juice and fragrant, lithe raspberry fruit on the palate. Fine, sandy tannins that stick to the fruit on the palate. Fantastic balance and length." 17++ Points, Walter Speller, Jancis Robsinson "Pale ruby in the glass, with gianduia chocolate, redcurrants, dried cherry and dried flowers....

"A wildly expressive and untamed Cerretta that dances between savory depth and bright vitality. Ancient church incense and mixed spices weave through memories of sacred spaces while a vibrant core of wild cherry bursts forth with electric energy. The tannins are precisely crafted, present but refined, providing elegant structure without overwhelming. Brilliant acidity drives the wine forward, creating a thrilling...

"Serralunga d’Alba. Pale ruby. Seductive raspberry nose with the merest suggestion of oak. Has a certain coolness about it. Sappy raspberry fruit, elegant and perfumed on the finish with subtle, fine tannins. A very pretty wine and ready now." 17, Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com

"Dark plums and blackberries unfold with remarkable depth and purity. The wine reveals layers of violets and morning glories, softly floating above savory notes of white pepper and crushed fennel seed. A distinctive saline mineral character weaves throughout, adding complexity and intrigue. Here is Prapo showing its signature gentle side of Serralunga - immediately appealing yet built for the long...

"The 2022 Morellino di Scansano Riserva is a tasty wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. Intense red-toned fruit, leather, cedar, tobacco and incense are front and center. The warmth of the year is evident, and yet this is very nicely done, with fine balance and tons of charm to match. It will be especially fine...

"The 2023 Nardo is 85% Sangiovese and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. A dense, closed wine, Nardo is quite promising today. This pre-bottling tank sample is suggestive of a wine that is going to need quite a bit of time to come together. Dark red-toned fruit, crushed flowers, licorice, spice and dried herbs open with some coaxing. I look forward to tasting...

"Marina Marcarino energetically manages this estate following organic viticultural practises. The Campo Quadro Riserva is complex and multifaceted, with minty and balsamic notes along with camphor, a slightly foxy character and cedar wood. Ripe and velvety on the palate, with firm acidity and a leaner-styled body, it shows pleasant fresh strawberry and raspberry fruit, although it lacks the concentration to...

"The 2019 Rosso di Montalcino is dreamy, wafting up with dusty rose, crushed cherries and sage. This flows across the palate with ease, energetic and lifted with a solid core of ripe wild berry fruits that slowly drench the palate in youthful tension. A coating of fine-grained tannins remains offset by a bump of residual acidity, tapering off spicy and...

"Dark aromas of graphite, potpourri, smoke, bergamot and dried cherries. Firm tannins on the palate, with a full body, a dusty texture, refreshing acidity and a powerful finish. Extracted, meaty, concentrated and balanced for the long haul, with an amazing minty aftertaste. Try from 2027." 97 Points, James Suckling "My top pick from this estate in 2021, the Villero bottling...

" Elisa Sesti recalls that when temperatures started to rise after the abundant rains of June, the vines burst into growth. That generosity and exuberance is echoed in the scents brimming in her Brunello. Heather, lavender, mint – even a trace of helichrysum – all swell from the glass. Less forthcoming on the palate for now, it is nonetheless replete...

In the nose, this enticing white is a complex, beguiling play of aromas with fruity nuances of exotic fruits such as pineapple, notes of blossoms and flowers, of rose petals and light toast aromas. Dense and complex, the wine enthuses on the palate: with fullness and structure, creamily soft and elegant, stimulatingly fresh and juicy with a discreetly incorporated, modest...

"The 2020 Sangiovese Riserva Vigna Boggina is another stellar wine in this range from Luca Sanjust. Deep, rich and explosive, the 2020 possesses remarkable intensity from start to finish. It is more a wine of place than a truly varietal Sangiovese, but does that matter? The Riserva spends 16-18 months in wood, mostly cask with some medium-sized barrels as well....
