From Toscana IGT
| Vintage: | 2018 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 94 JS / 93 Ws / 92 Fs / 90 Vm / 16.5 Jr. A pretty red with density and richness, offering cherry and chocolate aromas and flavors, as well as hazelnuts. Yet, it's tight and so fine and focused. Very polished tannins run the length of the palate. Drink or hold. - James Suckling. Exhibits a strong Sangiovese character, with cherry, earth, iron and leather aromas and flavors. Solidly built and nicely balanced, leaving an aftertaste of savory cherry, iron and tobacco accents. Sangiovese. Drink now through 2028. 835 cases made, 300 cases imported. - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator. Vibrant ruby colour. Inviting nose of fresh strawberry, raspberry, a hint of cream and buttery shortbread making the nose particularly enticing. Very polished and precise on the palate, spreading across the tongue with salty tannin, subtle woody notes on the finish with slightly coarse tannin.-Falstaff. The 2018 Giodo La Quinta shows depths of dark red fruits on the nose, as black cherry evolves into raspberry and, finally, strawberry, offset by notes of dusty rose, leather and cedar shavings. On the palate, silky textures flood the senses with a sweet and savory expression, further accentuated by salty minerals and vibrant acids, as pretty inner florals amass toward the close. The finish is long and perfumed. - Eric Guido, Vinous Media. 100% Sangiovese. Mid ruby. Fully mature nose. Gentle and sweet on the palate with the purity and tang of Sangiovese on the end. Bone-dry finish and very much a wine for food. Long and pure. A floral note.-Jancis Robinson |
