Tasted this wine in Trastevere within a cellar that had walls built as early as 80BC. Now I will admit, the romance of Roman history may have influenced my rating. But this wine went very well with our suppli. — 10 years ago

You'll need a hearty beef dish or the like to complement this powerful red. A forceful, somewhat tart bouquet with an even more forceful finish. Simply superb! — 11 years ago

An absolute treat! A hot nose, dusty bing cherries and dates with an earthy note. Big and bold on the palate, cedar and black plums with a grippy finish. By the glass at Rendezvous! — 10 years ago

Fresh cut wood, tobacco, and cinnamon with a good amount of juicy fruity flavor to balance the earthiness. — 10 years ago

Got the 2007 riserva in Panzano. Full, smooth, cherries, plums, a little leather, maybe a little white pepper. Delicious. — 11 years ago

9.3

Deeply opaque wine moving towards a tawny color. Nose has dark black fruit, sweet vanilla, toast, and a bit of honeysuckle. Palate is full and mouthcoating with mocha, blackberries, white pepper, and baking spices. Acidity is crisp, tannins are firm, and the finish is long. The wine is rustic, unusual and tasty. — 11 years ago
