Score: 95Vintage 2021James SucklingLovely freshness and brightness with currant bush and hints of lemongrass and fresh basil. Full-bodied and focused with firm and polished tannins. Half cabernet sauvignon and half cabernet franc. Drink now or hold.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 93Vintage 2021Wine Spectator This is a complex red, sporting black currant, blackberry, plum, chocolate, vanilla and herbaceous flavors. Vibrant and well-defined, with a line of dusty tannins on the finish. There's plenty going on; this just needs another year or two of aging. Shows excellent balance and length. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2026 through 2037. 1,000 cases made, 200 cases imported.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 93Vintage 2021Wine AdvocateA blend of 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a new wine from Campo alle Comete (in a medium-heavy bottle, with only 6,000 made). The 2021 Bolgheri Superiore Torre alle Comete has a creamy note of cheese rind that cedes to inky dark fruit, blackberry, popcorn and strawberry cobbler. There is a slightly cooked note to this wine that comes from the vintage, followed by soft and sweet tannins over full-bodied texture. The wine is nicely buttoned up and balanced overall, and lengthy too.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review

Score: 91Vintage 2021Vinous MediaThe 2021 Bolgheri Rosso Superiore Torre alle Comete (Cabernet Franc/Cabernet Sauvignon) is a bold, juicy wine. Succulent black cherry, espresso, licorice and chocolate are all dialed up. This mid-weight, luscious red marries richness with energy in a stylish package.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
