This excellent wine is slated to be released in January 2025. The Poggio di Sotto 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva shows a point of brilliant fruit over a medium-plus texture. The wine exhibits dusty tannins from the galestro-rich schistic soils that have a huge impact on the elegance and complexity of this exceptional and cellar-worthy Sangiovese. The palate salivates when you taste this wine. The bouquet is refined and bright with floral tones, red fruit and pencil shaving. Everything is in perfect form and balance. The 2019 vintage has the power and muscle for a long bottle evolution. Drink date: 2030-2060. Score - 99. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Nov. 21, 2024)
This shows aromas of bark and blueberries with meatiness and dried herbs woven in. The medium- to full-bodied palate has pretty, enveloping red fruit as well as firm yet polished tannins. It has lovely tension with a crystalline finish. Better from 2026. Score - 95. (Jacobo Garcia-Andrade Llamas, jamessuckling.com, Dec. 11, 2024)
Pouring a dark magenta, the 2021 Grattamacco is fruity and floral with aromas of lavender oils, plum, mocha, incense, and sweet earth. Full-bodied, it has refreshing acidity, defined, ripe tannins, and a good finish. It has a lot of potential and should improve and stand the test of time. It's fantastically detailed. Drink date: 2026-2050. Score - 98. (Audrey Frick, jebdunnuck.com, March 18, 2025)
Coming on the heels of the scorching hot 2017, this vintage started off with lots of rain in April and May that required preventative measures against fungal disease. Splendid heat and sunshine marked the summer months, but the freshness you taste in this wine is a beautiful characteristic of this cooler growing season. The 2018 Bolgheri Superiore Grattamacco reveals a finely nuanced bouquet with dark fruit, tobacco, smoke and earthy garrigue or underbrush. The wine leans toward full-bodied, but it also feels quite elegant and crisp on the streamlined finish. Drink date: 2023-2040. Score - 96. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, July 29, 2022)

The 2015 Bolgheri Superiore Grattamacco is big, bold and absolutely stunning. This blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 15% Sangiovese is dark and luscious, with overlapping melodies of tobacco, spice, dark fruit and grilled herb. There is so much depth and power. This vintage is a gem for your cellar, and the wine should award a long aging trajectory for those who have the patience to wait. Drink date: 2019-2040. Score - 97.

The contribution of Sangiovese (15%) in the blend of Grattamacco makes it a distinctive Bolgheri Superiore. If on the nose Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are prevailing with cassis fruit, cedar and kiwi, full of balsamic depth, the indigenous grape pushes the fragrance of the wine with chewy wild fruit flavours. An exceptional expression in the hot vintage. Complex and layered, without any foursquare character, this organic wine is waiting for extra complexity over its liquorice finish. Drinking window: 2020-2040. Score - 96. (Aldo Fiordelli, decanter.com, Sept. 1, 2020)
This is really classy, with refined tannins that run the length of the wine, providing great poise and balance. It's medium-bodied with focused and precise redcurrants and raspberries, together with cedar and light spice. Very long and beautiful. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but give this two or three years to come together. Score - 96. (jamessuckling.com, July 24, 2024)
