Color: deep ruby red.
Nose: Nose shows complex aromas of ripe blackberry and raspberry typical of Sangiovese, with contribution from the barrel oak.
Palate: The palate is complex and highly structured, full and persistent. with very present fruit characters, a long and sapid aftertaste with evident tannins. The ripe soft tannins are perfectly balanced with the acidity, long pleasant and flavoursome aftertaste.Sweet and tart berries and fresh flowers kick off the palate, then crushed stones and herbs make themselves known. Strawberries and raspberries star on the palate, while undertones of orange peel, wild fennel and pepper provide balance. An integrated, coherent, immensely enjoyable wine. Col d'Orcia is hardly a secret, but could still be considered underappreciated for how great it is at this price threshold.
95 pts - Luca Gardini (Gardini Notes)From the area of Sant’Angelo in Colle, a Brunello able to combine important numbers with impeccable quality, thanks to the weapon of balance. Queen cherry on the nose, white pepper, hints of china and caramelized orange zest. On the palate, brackish tannins, red fruit, then spices and persistence.
