Reviews and Ratings

Fav Wines rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

This Italian red provided aromas of smoke, tobacco, spice, berry. I detected several flavours in this one. The strongest for me was a nice berry flavour. An excellent choice for those who enjoy their wine with a dinner that includes red meat and pasta.
Firm tannins and dark fruit flavours on this full-bodied Italian red wine. Pair with beef. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
