Sangiovese Wine

jamessuckling.com, 99 points: A stunning wine. This is the best Testamatta ever made. Fascinating aromas of red fruits, tea, bark and wet soil as well as fresh leather. Full body, silky tannins and a juicy finish. I love the tension and texture of...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 94 points: (94-97) The 2015 Chianti Classico Rancia is one of the most finessed young Rancias I have ever tasted. Silky, aromatically precise and nuanced to the core, the 2015 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. This is an...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 90 points: (AG88-90 points) The 2014 Rosso di Montalcino represents the majority of the harvest in a year that was extremely challenging and plagued with rain in the days leading up to the harvest. A pleasant, fruit-driven Rosso...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 95 points: 95+ The 2014 Il Carbonaione is one of the truly exceptional wines of this challenging season. Lithe and aromatic on the palate, with fabulous energy and overall brightness, it stands out for its superb balance. In many...

jamessuckling.com, 90 points: A clean, fresh red with dried-strawberry and lemon-rind character. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a chewy finish. Always excellent. Drink or hold.

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: This shows wonderful purity of fruit with bright cherries, floral notes and hints of vanilla beans. Full-bodied, round and tannic yet extremely polished and full of finesse. Wonderful beauty and length. Drinkable now but...

Vinous, 96 points: The 2014 Percarlo is one of the most refined young Percarlos I can remember tasting at San Giusto. A silky, polished wine, it makes its case with persistence and length more than power alone. Dark cherry, sage, tobacco...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A rich and dense Brunello with gorgeous ripe berry, plum and hints of cigar box. Full and chewy yet ripe and caressing on the palate. A decadent and intense red. This will age for a long time but why wait. More...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: Exotic spice, pipe tobacco, dark-skinned berry, forest floor and a whiff of French oak all come together on this structured red. The elegant, full-bodied palate evokes Marasca cherry, black raspberry, licorice and white...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Lovely aromas of sweet fruit, flowers such as violets and black olives. Sandalwood undertones. Full body and extremely fine tannins. Persistent and sexy. Shows such intensity and finesse. Drink in 2019.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: 90+ The 2014 Chianti Classico shows a lot more sweetness and softness than I would have expected from this challenging vintage. This impressive wine is rounder and richer than many of its peers. Representing a blend of...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Fascinating aromas of dried oranges, blackberries and black truffles follow through to a full body, fine and integrated tannins and a flavorful finish. Very well-crafted. Made from organic grapes. Drink or hold.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: I absolutely enjoyed the 2015 Poggio Valente. This pure expression of Sangiovese really hits all the right buttons. The wine is rich and long-lasting with ripe fruit intensity followed by bold aromas of cherry...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This is a selection of the best sangiovese on the property. The owner says the goal is to make something to compete with the best Brunello. And so it is. Full-bodied, firm and lively. Wonderful texture and length. Ripe...

jamessuckling.com, 97 points: What a nose of clay, earth, crushed stones, rose petals, red licorice, baking spices, tar and Chinese spices. The level of sophistication to the red-fruited core, laser-sharp acidity and polished tannins, which grip and...
