Poderi Boscarelli

Rosso De Ferrari by Boscarelli reveals a wide scent of chocolate and redcurrants alongside the classic cherry aroma. This complexity continues in the taste, in which the dense, soft texture has an overly pleasant effect. SUPERIORE.DE

Boscarellis Prugnolo opens the nose with velvety and cherry aromas, then becomes full-bodied and powerful. Excellent fruit on the palate, pleasant fresh acidity, present tannin, structured and long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fragrant and supple, this young red has enticing aromas of wild dark-skinned berry, blue flower and dark spice. It's vibrant, savory and easy-drinking, doling out juicy Marasca cherry, raspberry and baking spice set against lithe tannins." Wine Enthusiast

"This is a very endearing and fruity red, reminiscent of Beaujolais, with pressed violets and raspberries. Light body, bright acidity and a minerally, tangy finish." James Suckling

Boscarellis Merlot has a very complex and pleasant aroma of ripe blueberries and plums, slightly smoky and burnt nuts. Firm and strong on the palate, ripe, juicy, tart fruit and youthful but polished tannin. Wonderfully persistent, long, spicy and smooth. SUPERIORE.DE

Brilliant ruby red with slightly brightening rim. Impressive scent of red berries, smoke and dark spices. On the palate tight, straightforward, expressive and of beautiful length. Boscarellis Nobile di Montepulciano is a wonderfully precise example of its growing zone. SUPERIORE.DE

" Coquettish bouquet with floral-spicy nuances; in the mouth full-bodied, the tannins polished and in harmony with the acidity, finely fruity the final. Has potential." Vinum

"Noble, dark ruby red. Closed nose, delicate overripe plum, dried rose petals. Opens on the palate with a melty touch, then slightly bitter in the middle with a ferruginous mouthfeel, juicy, tight in the final." Falstaff

"Fresh and bright with strawberry and orange-peel character. Light body, bright acidity and a clean and crisp finish. Fun." James Suckling

"The gorgeous 2016 Vino Nobile includes local blending varieties, Canaiolo Nero, Colorino and Mammolo. A spectrum of enticing aromas greets the nose, from rose, violets and wild cherry to sage and thyme. Elegant, savoury and deceptively light on its feet, the palate proposes sweet yet tangy fruit with layers of finessed, powdery tannin. This superb wine is just at the start of its evolution." Decanter

"Wild berry, blue flower, crushed herb, camphor and a whiff of tobacco mingle together on this vibrant red. Made with 85% Sangiovese as well as Canaiolo, Colorino and Mammolo, the radiant palate is loaded with finesse, delivering raspberry compote, Marasca cherry, licorice and Asian spice. Elegant, fine-grained tannins provide the framework while bright acidity keeps it balanced." Wine Enthusiast

"Expressive and harmonious, this red exhibits cherry, blackberry, violet and mineral aromas and flavors. Pure and elegant, with an underlying tension and intensity that drives the lingering aftertaste of fruit, stone and earth, showing a hint of wild herbs." Wine Spectator

Will the Vin Santo from 100% Sangiovese or here: Prugnolo Gentile vinified, it carries the addition Occhio di Permice. Amber, dried fruit on the nose, candied orange and hints of hazelnuts. Full and close on the palate, with a subtle but never broad sweetness, quasi palatable elegance, and a wonderfully long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

The Nobile Riserva, a cru from the historic location of Sotto Casa, deserves a place in the best list. Its delicate scents of cherries and spices set the mood for an intense, tasty drinking experience. A powerful and elegant representative of its kind with well ripened fruit in the final and a delightful portion of saltiness in the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Wild herb and loamy earth notes wrap around a core of plum flavors in this muscular red. Iron, sanguine and spice accents add depth as this plays out on the firm, chewy finish. Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon." Wine Spectator

A little of everything, but never too much of a good thing. One of the most complex Nobiles we've ever tasted. Delicate red fruits with a pinch of sweetness and flower aroma, underlaid with tobacco. Clear cherry aroma on the palate, in addition a wonderful spice with again this subtle sweetness in the background. A finely tuned and harmonious finale makes you want the next glass. Very well done! SUPERIORE.DE

"Bouquet of stone fruit, herbs and spices, also tobacco, balanced and still youthful texture, acidity and tannin in balance, elegant finish. Excellent with cooked beef." Vinum

"Intense, rich ruby red. Restrained nose, only hesitantly reveals some smoke and red berries. Well-balanced and juicy on the palate, harmonious and well-balanced in the attack and course, dark fruit, tightly woven tannin gives decent pressure in the finale." Falstaff

"A classic Vino Nobile di Montepulciano with a rather subtle nose of red cherries with hints of plum cake and spice. Ripe and quite rich, but with some delicacy and plenty of dry tannins." James Suckling

"Boscarelli's new single-vineyard expression offers a pristine and unobstructed view into Tuscany's Sangiovese grape as interpreted in a warm and sunny vintage. Luca de Ferrari and his family always make some of the purest and most elegant expressions from this Tuscan appellation. The pretty 2015 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Costa Grande is redolent of wild berry, cherry, pressed violets and fragrant moist earth. You feel the density and richness of the vintage, however the wine is linear, smooth and silky all the while." Robert Parker

"Made entirely with Sangiovese, this offers enticing aromas of exotic spice, ripe black-skinned fruit, tilled soil, French oak and a whiff of leather. The full-bodied palate boasts structure, elegance and tension, delivering juicy wild cherry, raspberry, star anise and espresso set against firm fine-grained tannins." (Cellar Selection) Wine Enthusiast

From its deep violet red it sends hints of black currant, candied lemon peel and spices into the nose. The weight of the taste is optimal, the finely granulated tannin is perfectly integrated into the overall structure. SUPERIORE.DE

Nocio, a Vino Nobile di Montepulciano from a single vineyard, impressively shows the true character of the Sangiovese grape and has also been the quality leader of the region for years. Deep red, intense aromas of sour cherry, red currant, rose blossom, violet and sweet spices. On the palate dense, juicy and elegant, with fresh pure fruit and smooth polished tannin. Lively mineral and floral nuances in the very long aftertaste. SUPERIORE.DE

"Excellent the result of the entire production, outstanding the Nobile Nocio '10, complex, generous aroma pack, with fresh notes of menthol and eucalyptus, fruity notes of blackcurrant and fine tobacco. Quick on the palate, where it relaxes harmoniously and vigorously, full of flavour and long finish." Gambero Rosso 2015

"Offering a beam of pure cherry, currant and iron flavors, this red hits all the right notes and has the backbone to develop. Tightly wound now, but decanting or a few years in the cellar will help this relax. Earth and tobacco elements gird the finish." Wine Spectator

"Made entirely with Sangiovese, this full-bodied red opens with aromas of wild berry, exotic spice, aromatic herb and a whiff of fragrant blue flower. It's elegant and structured, with a youthful tension that underscores juicy wild cherry, raspberry compote, cinnamon and a hint of pipe tobacco. Fresh acidity lends balance while fine-grained tannins provide polished support. It's already tempting but will develop even more complexity with cellaring." Wine Enthusiast

"The 2015 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Il Nocio, 100% Sangiovese, is another gorgeous wine from Boscarelli. Dark cherry, plum, spice, menthol and licorice are all amped up in this decidedly fleshy, curvy Vino Nobile. Generous and radiant, the 2015 has a lot to offer. Ripeness is a bit pushed here, but there is just enough freshness and structure to pull things back into the classical framework that defines these wines." Vinous

"An elegant and reserved style of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, this shows fresh red berries, citrus, orange peel and cedar. On the palate though, it presents a warm and hearty core of fruit, accentuated by steely yet juicy tannins. Very good indeed and a beautiful, neoclassical style." James Suckling

"Pure and refined, this red boasts cherry, strawberry, floral and mineral aromas and flavors. Sleek and balanced, this stays focused and long on the terrific aftertaste. Very fresh and vibrant." Wine Spectator
