"With little sensory appeal it offers notes of lavender, withered white flowers and lime. Medium bodied, light tannins and a savoury finale of medium length. Need to re-taste, not a very expressive bottle."

"Sleek and savory, this lovely red made with 90% Sangiovese, 5% Canaiolo and 5% Colorino offers scents of wild berries, crushed mint, fragrant blue flowers and baking spice. The lithe, elegant palate features juicy Marasca cherry, star anise and spearmint framed in polished tannins. It closes on a dollop of vanilla. Drink through 2029. Kerin O'Keefe"

"Fresh and balsamic giving pleasure with its floral notes of hibiscus, agapanthus, dried cherries and very delicate toasted hazelnuts. Medium to full bodied, perfectly extracted and polymerized tannins and a finale of medium to long progression that shows tension and character. The right amount of contribution from new wood. Better from 2023."

"Vira in mille direzioni per descrivere la natura indomita delle note di ciliegie, cassis, ribes e lamponi. Sentori dal profilo rosso acido e croccante. Corpo medio-pieno, tannini morbidi e maturi all'ingresso al palato si fondono al finale classico di stampo vibrante che caratterizza da sempre i vini di Castellina in Chianti. Che storia. Bevi ora."

"The nose is fruity, slightly tight and offers a small density as well as elegance. It reveals notes of small berries, cassis and small notes of blueberry associated with touches of olive, racy minerality, garrigue as well as very discreet hints of sweet tobacco and tea. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, silky, well-built, very slightly tight and offers a beautiful fresh frame, a beautiful juiciness, a nice roundness, a beautiful suavity, precision, a slight acidity (in the background) as well as elegance. On the palate this wine expresses notes of cherry, crushed cassis and small notes of blueberry associated with touches of ripe / crushed raspberry, chocolate, toasted oak / vanilla as well as slight touches of garrigue / olive. Tannins are well-built. Good length and good persistence. Beautiful grain on the finish."

"Soft on the nose, where you get mostly peanut brittle and graham cracker. Underneath you'll find a bit of green along with plum and berry. The wine has power, but it's also rather flat and alcoholic. Likely better in a more balanced vintage like 2001."
