  • Score: 90 Vintage 2019 Vinous Media Sweet blackberries, lavender, brown spice and crushed cherries keep you coming back to the 2019 Cerasuolo di Vittoria Giambattista Valli over and over again. This is fleshy, enveloping the senses in ripe black fruits, nicely contrasted by brisk acids, as purple-tinged florals form toward the close. The 2019 keeps the energy high right through the finale, where notes of plum and wild herbs linger long over a subtle layer of fine tannin. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 89 Vintage 2019 Wine Spectator An herbaceous red loaded with chopped rosemary and marjoram aromas, transitioning on the palate to flavors of boysenberry coulis, candied violet, orange peel and spice. Bright and stylish, with a fresh, lightly chewy finish. Nero d'Avola and Frappato. Drink now through 2024. 2,500 cases made, 700 cases imported.  Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 92 Vintage 2018 Vinous Media The 2018 Cerasuolo di Vittoria Giambattista Valli is understated yet refined, featuring purple-tinged flowers, incense, and hints of black licorice. This is seamlessly silky and elegant in feel, with a polished display of blackberry and currant giving way to a bitter twang of savory spice. Pretty inner violet notes and minerals mingle over a coating of round tannins, as the 2018 finishes with admirable length. I love the harmonious mix of textures, acids and fruit here. Nicely done.

  • Score: 90 Vintage 2017 James Suckling Raspberry liqueur, glazed dark plums and morello cherries are an ambitious but appealing proposition. Full-bodied and quite structured, embracing ripe layers of soft fruit, interlaced with chewy tannins. Drink from 2021. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 89 Vintage 2017 Wine Spectator Fragrant, with hints of herb and hibiscus tea, this light- to medium-bodied red features crushed cherry and pomegranate fruit, iron and orange peel flavors, accented by light, snappy tannins and bright acidity.
