"Identità da vendere nella ricercatezza del bello con note di fiori rossi, lamponi e ciliegia. Buona la presenza delle mandorle dolci in sottofondo che ben si fondono all'erba tagliata. Corpo medio-pieno, tannini morbidi e soffici ben integrati nella matrice vino ed un finale carnoso e succoso. Ben fatto. Bevi ora o invecchia."

"(2020) South African born Manfred Ing has been at the winemaking helm of this biodynamic estate for many years, in that time further refining their already exquisite wines, red and white. an excellent year, this is Sangiovese vineyards in Greve, Radda and Gaiole, and it spent 14 months in barriques and larger barrels, all French oak, with 5% new. I love the refinement and distinction of the nose here, that reminded me very much of a fine Pauillac, with graphite and a touch of cedar and black olive over pert, but ripe black fruits. In the mouth it is beautifully balanced: racy and alert thanks to the finesse and juiciness of the tannins and acidity, and the keen cherry and raspberry edge to the black fruits adding even more precision. Fabulous and cellar-worthy."

Am Gaumen sehr fein, schmelzig, mit eng gewobenem Tannin, baut sich in vielen Schichten auf, tolle Frucht und Frische im Finale. Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler"

"Sexy ed intrigante mostra mille sfumature nel calice nella bellezza delle note floreali di giacinto, lavanda, iris, magnolia, petali di rosa e fiori di limone. C'è di più nell'eleganza del sottofondo che cela un tris di note sensoriali alternando l'ibisco a sentori di giglio e rosa canina tritata. Corpo medio-pieno, struttura morbida e succosa al palato ed un finale fresco e scorrevole sorso dopo sorso. Bellissima emozione. Bevi ora."

"This wine is a large step above your average Chianti Classico thanks to its thick concentration and youthful, fruity core of cherries and ripe blueberries.
