This is really pretty, with cherry, peach, and orange-peel character. It's medium-bodied with very fine tannins and a long, long finish. Creamy and so polished. It goes on for minutes. A graceful and complex 2020 Brunello. Is this better than the 2019? Drink after 2027, but already beautiful to taste. Score - 97. (jamessuckling.com, Sept. 24, 2024)
Restrained, vibrant and fruity riserva with red cherries and raspberries, potpourri and even incense. Medium- to full-bodied with leafy flavor, velvety and ripe tannins yet chewy acidity and a chalky finish. Good blood-orange aftertaste. Better in two or three years but already so delicious. Score - 96. (jamessuckling.com, Dec. 11, 2024)
A bright red with firm, integrated tannins that provide length and focus. It's medium-bodied with citrus and berry character and excellent length. I like it now, but give it two or three years to show its full potential. Same quality as 2019? Best after 2027. Score - 95. (jamessuckling.com, Sept. 24, 2024)
Attractive nose of dark cherries, cocoa and hints of walnuts and dark spices. Medium-bodied, juicy and fine textured, with polished tannins. Fresh and balanced. Drink now. Score - 90. (jamessuckling.com, July 22, 2024)
