Decanter.com – 93 pts – MCK, SN, MW: *Concentrated nose of red and black fruits with hints of gentle baking spices and notes of dried mushrooms. Very elegant texture with velvety tannins. Nominated by Richard Baudains.* - 10/2021

Falstaff Magazin – 90 pts – OK, SS: *Leuchtendes Rubinrot mit funkelndem Kern. Duftende, florale Nase, nach Veilchen, Pflaumen, Herzkirschen, rosa Pfeffer. Am Gaumen sehr saftig und mit knackiger Säure, edle Pfefferwürze, von mittlerer Länge, bleibt dann etwas trocknend zurück.* - 02/2022

Vinum Magazin – 17,5/20 pts: *Harmonischer Blend aus 80 % Sangiovese und 20 % Cabernet Sauvignon: Den Reigen eröffnen Nogten von Waldfrüchten, Tabak, Lakritze und Veilchen; geschliffene Statur mit perfekt ausbalanzierter Säure und grosser Länge. Vereint Finesse und Fülle.* - 11/2022

JancisRobinson.com – 17++/20pts – WS: *Mid to deep ruby with orange tinges. Captivating nose of red fruit that is savoury and salty, rather than sweet, and with an undertow of liquorice. It may be Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated but this wine eclipses the variety entirely. A hint of pet shop. Velvety and savoury on the palate and with the tanginess of Sangiovese. Ends on soft, but gritty, tannins. Highly unusual and fascinating. Fruit flavours play second fiddle.* - 08/2022

Vinous.com – 92 pts – EG: *The 2018 Carmignano Villa di Capezzana shows woodland herbs and berries with a touch of clove. Here I’m finding silky, opulent textures ushering in a mineral-tinged wave of red and black fruits. Zesty acids motivate the experience, keeping the mouth watering through the long and purple-floral-tinged finale, where hints of mocha and exotic spices linger..* - 10/2021
