2015 Ricasoli Brolio Chianti Classico DOCG
Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, March 2018
“Made with 80% Sangiovese, 15% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, this has aromas of violet, red-skinned berry and underbrush. The bright palate offers ripe raspberry, red cherry and a sprinkling of white pepper alongside fine-grained tannins.”

2014 Donnafugata Tancredi
James Suckling, James Suckling, October 2018
“Clove, vanilla and dust character comes through on the nose, but there’s plenty of underbrush, pine needles and brambleberries to counter that. The palate shows a structured, tannin backbone that’s quite chewy, and the dark fruit flavors roll over spicy components to the medium-long finish. Drink in 2020.”

2014 Donnafugata Tancredi
Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, September 2018
“Forest floor, scorched earth, grilled herb and oak driven spice aromas come to the forefront along with mature dark-skinned berry. The juicy medium bodied palate delivers cassis, mature plum, toast and star anise framed in taut fine-grained tannins.”

Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, July 2018
“A harmonious, medium- to full-bodied red, offering expressive flavors of ripe black currant and herbed olive, with hints of ground espresso and woodsy spice structured by grippy yet well-meshed, tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Nero d'Avola and Syrah. Drink now through 2028. 50 cases imported.”

2017 Donnafugata SurSur
Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, June 2018
“Grapefruit, white stone fruit and Mediterranean herb aromas lead the way along with a scent reminiscent of tomato leaf. Bright and juicy, the medium bodied palate does out pineapple, white peach and sage set against crisp acidity. A saline note tops it off.”
