2013 in Tuscany was a more classic vintage, producing wines with some elegance and freshness. There’s a distinct feeling of ‘macchia mediterranea’ about this wine, with notes of green herb, tomato leaf and wild flowers. It's still quite dense and brooding, but with some lighter, leafy notes and a refreshing palate with little, crunchy tannins. There's a lovely range of flavours, from sweet tobacco and oak spice to ripe black fruit and sappy, green herbs. A powerful but beautifully structured wine. (Drink between 2018-2039)

This has perfumed notes of rose petals, sandalwood, blackberries, thyme, peppercorns and slate. Lovely, supple and soft texture, yet firm in tannin structure. Flavorful and layered. Grilled-herb and espresso notes come through at the end. Fantastic length, too. 100% merlot. Drink or hold.

This is a vintage that I truly loved, and I'm so happy to come back to it now. The 2013 Redigaffi benefitted from a long growing season with a late harvest that started past the first week of September. Today, the wine is fresh and vibrant with sweet cherry concentration, a minty note, dried flower and tart cassis or dried cranberry. You get the sense that this wine still has a lot to give over the course of its future evolution. I think the long growing cycle gives a lot in terms of complexity, depth and mouthfeel. - Monica Larner

Plum, cherry, black currant, cedar, vanilla and toast flavors highlight this plush, flashy red, which is dense, needing time to absorb the oak, yet remains smooth in texture, building to the saturated finish. A hedonistic style. Merlot. Best from 2019 through 2028. 800 cases made. — BS
