Intense stuff and IMOO one of Apoellation Tellus Controllée's best interpretations of this heralded variety. Best from 2020.

Complex and rewarding on many levels, this still youthful blockbuster CS is elegant and driven by its underlying minerality, but it also possesses richness and density. Created from the most international of red grape varieties, it does capture a true Tuscan soul and a great sense of place. Easy 95+ p. Best from 2020.

Magnificent stuff providing an array of aromas and flavors, this is flirting with perfection! By far the pay refined and elegant vintage to date, this sets a new standard to what's possible in Southeastern Tuscany. Polished tannins and lovely acidity are tucked to bed by silky sweet black curtsy fruit and area specific roasted herb additions. Great, layered, long and very promising finish showing tremendous potent for the long haul. Together with Gabbro 2010, this is Fabio's best wine to date.
