2020
Intense and thick ruby red color. Complex on the nose, reminiscent of fruits of the forest jam, sweet spices, thyme and cocoa. Full-bodied. Excellent balance between alcohols and polyalcohols, acids and tannins, with a persistent finish and a pleasant sweet, fresh and fruity follow-through. It goes well with mature cheeses, red meat and game.

94 Points by Falstaff

Bright, rich ruby red. On the nose, candle wax, noble use of oak, in addition fine blackberry and cassis, and echoes of a fine savouriness. On the palate, vivid body, with a rich drive and lots of juice. Seems fleshy, and ends with a juicy finish.

94 Points by Vinous

An intense mix of black raspberry, wild herbs, air-dried meats and smoke form an incredibly deep and characterful bouquet as the darkly alluring 2020 Carmignano Il Sasso opens in the glass. For all of its animalistic nature on the nose, this is remarkably finessed and vivid on the palate. Saline-infused acids energize tart berry fruits. This finishes only lightly structured, marrying a bitter cherry pit twang with hints of blood orange that keep me looking back to the glass for more. The 2020 may be a thrill ride on the palate today, but with a short stay in the cellar, I expect it to explode aromatically. A total knock-out.

92 Points by James Suckling

A pleasant, juicy red with currant, berry and walnut character. Some chocolate, too. Medium body. Sangiovese, cabernet sauvignon and merlot.

2021

Marasca cherries jump from the glass with elegant hints of balsamic and spice. The wine is full and enveloping on the palate with a charming elegance.

94 Points - Falstaff

Rich and bright ruby red with light garnet glints. On the nose rich cherries and ripe plums, then cassis and slightly leathery. On the palate fruity-sweet, with velvety tannin, juicy and gluggable, long finish.
