The 2018 Cinque Querce opens with an earth-driven, varietal bouquet of musky black currents and exotic spices. It’s cool-toned and racy, placing minerality before fruit that is excited by a tinge of blood orange. Crunchy tannins and a dark inner floral thrust linger. Patience will be rewarded. $22.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, February 2023)
