Tenuta di Valgiano Colline Lucchesi Rosso 2021
Sweet scorched earth, brown leather, dusty fine tannin. This couldn't be from anywhere else other than Tuscany. There is real class and elegance to this. 100% Sangiovese and quite regal yet understated. It has a gentle and slow release of sweet fruit, a deep core and fine row of tannin that slowly unfurls as you drink it. A high quality wine, no doubt. - Ches Cook, Five Way Cellars.
In exceptional years, Sangiovese stands alone and reveals the extraordinary quality of the estate's oldest vineyards. A profound expression of site, vintage and variety.
“The 2021 Tenuta di Valgiano is seriously impressive. Layered and dynamic, with notable energy, the 2021 has so much to offer. A rush of dark red fruits, mocha, new leather, cedar, incense and spice signals a wine of complexity and pedigree.” 95 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous.
