"Red berries and rose petals, textbook Nebbiolo elevated to perfection. Piano wire tension carrying the wine from start to finish, the tannins are plentiful and rich without being astringent acting as the backbone holding the fruit expression tight but allowing individual expression as the wine sits on the mid palate. Needs time but already so compelling! Stunning Giacosa brilliance." Armit...

"Impressive aromas of fresh herbs from the Tuscan coast, such as sage, mint, rosemary and thyme. Blackcurrants, too. Full-bodied with fine, chewy tannins that show beautiful length and consistency. Racy and beautiful, with lots of subtle and refined character. Slightly more cabernet sauvignon this year, which adds class to the wine. 80% cabernet sauvignon, 10% merlot and 10% petit verdot....

"Tasted blind. Some savour. Fresh and racy, very sleek – with ‘cashmere tannins’. Polished and fun to drink already. Lots of persistence. (JR)" 18.5, Jancis Robinson

Mesmerizing aromas of sandalwood, lavender, sage and currants. Mint and spearmint. Lead pencil shavings. Light coffee bean too. Medium to full body with ultra-fine tannins. It goes on for minutes. 60% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot, and 10% petit verdot. So approachable already, but this will age beautifully. Best after 2026 and beyond. 99, James Suckling

More towards the black fruit spectrum. Quite dense, without losing its lift. The texture is supple and pleasant with a nice, refreshing acidity. Clay and limestone soil. 11 months barrel ageing.
