Fattoria del Cerro

The Chianti Colli Senesi from Fattoria del Cerro is a dark, lively wine with beautiful fruit, minerality and leather aromas on the nose. Pleasantly round and balanced on the palate. A drinkable wine with a certain demand. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of raspberry, lavender, burnt lemon and dried oregano. It’s light-to medium-bodied with fine tannins and crisp acidity. Zesty and crunchy." James Suckling

As always, the Rosso from Cerro is good and very drinkable. Smoky, spicy and chocolate notes in the pleasantly fruity bouquet, typical of the grape variety, juicy and persistent on the palate. SUPERIORE.DE

"Some blueberry and black cherry with a steely edge. Medium body. Firm palate." James Suckling

Manero from Sangiovese and Merlot exudes wonderful aromas of plum, raspberry and cinnamon. Medium body, full-bodied, very well integrated tannins and a long, silky final. Very fine and a great wine for all days. SUPERIORE.DE

"Seductive nose of musk, pine needles, dried chamomile, dried lemon peel and an array of spices. Fascinating pine-cone and herbal flavors, too. It's medium-bodied with fine, sleek tannins." James Suckling

Rich and dense ruby red, open and accessible nose with beautiful blackberry fruit, light tea notes in the background. Also in the taste a beautiful fruit, reminiscent of ripe, dark cherries, then hearty tannin and a round finish. You simply can't get more classic Vino Nobile for this price. SUPERIORE.DE

"Surprises with an opulent fruit bouquet underpinned by fine spicy and violet notes; compact on the palate, has good tannins, finishes long." Vinum

"Medium shimmering garnet red. Fragrant on the nose of cardamom and ripe blackcurrant, a hint of liquorice and cocoa bean, multi-layered. Spans a wide arc on the palate, grippingly tightly meshed tannin, builds up in layers, compact, pithy, pulls itself juicily into the finish." Falstaff

"The 2018 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Silineo takes some time to open up in the glass, dusty and floral, yet beneath, I’m finding musky blackberries and hints of cedary spice. Its textures are silky-smooth and pliant, contrasted by floral-tinged tart berries and a flourish of sour citrus that keeps the expressions lively. A hint of wild herbs and a gentle grip of tannin lingers." Vinous

Wonderfully fragrant, fruity-floral bouquet. The taste is reminiscent of plums and cherries with a fine vanilla-spicy component and clear, very pleasant acidity and polished tannins. Clear fruit aromas, enormous velvety and a long finish emphasise the harmony of this Nobile Riserva. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich shining brown-red with minimal cloudiness. First smell of rich ripe cherry fruit, then rosehip and also juniper berries, then delicate leather spice in the background. Lively palate entry, stretches out a wide dress, compact and medium-bodied on the palate, tightens up a bit on the back end and finishes with some pressure on sweet fruit." Falstaff

"A medium-bodied, structured red with aromas and flavors of cloves, cedar and dried cherries. Hint of pine. Well integrated tannins. The oak spices blend in nicely." James Suckling

"The 2016 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva is dark with arching violet-tinged florals, hints of plum and Tuscan dust. Its textures are silky, communicating undeniable elegance, with a polished display of mineral-tinged wild berries contrasted by hints of sour citrus. What balance, tapering off lightly structured, with a purple and blue-toned array of residual fruits and inner herbal tones lingering on and on. This is classic but in need of some time to fully come together. The Riserva hails from Fattoria del Cerro’s higher-elevation vineyards that contain a high percentage of pebbles, fossils and shells."
