Advertised as combination of Chianti aromatics with Brunello boldness and delivered. Cherry and leather notes. Smooth finish with mildly tart and tannic notes. — 9 months ago

Great Sangiovese! Went wonderfully well with the grilled sheep cheese and Tuscany ham. Complimented the pasta as well. — 7 years ago

9.1

Reminiscent of Siena. Dusty musty nose. On the palate I get white pepper with a hint of anise in the back. Strawberry emerges on the finish with fairly balanced tannins. Quite good.

9.1

Ruby coloration with some transparency. On the nose, cherry, balsamic, vanilla, leather, crushed rock and earth. On the palate, medium to full body, cherry, currants, anise, espresso bean, leather, balsamic, vanilla and chocolate; a nicely layered palate with a medium to long finish. Tannins are still quite present but balanced. — 2 years ago

Fantastic wine of the region! Similar to the Riserva of the Contucci Family of Wines, this full-bodied (yet lighter) Nobile has an aromatic nose but not overpowering. A smooth and drier finish rounds out the taste! ... when did we start talking like we were professionals at this? (Maybe that's only in my mind...) — 7 years ago

9.1

Needs air. Definitely decant. In 2019 I rated it a 9.0 and in 2020 I now give it a 9.1. Age has been good to this wine softening and rounding the edges. — 4 years ago

Ripe, sweet plums and sour cherries. Medium body with nice juicy acidity. Just a touch of tannin in the background. No wood, great vintage. Lovely. — 7 years ago
