DONATELLA CINELLI COLOMBINI CENERENTOLA ORCIA 2019 DOC

... smoky mix of crushed rocks, dried flowers and blackcurrants, complicated by an exotic spiciness that I find wildly appealing. This is silken and round, yet quite cool-toned in feel. Depths of ripe red and blue fruits take on a tactile feel as crunchy minerals saturate under an air of violet inner florals. This finishes long ... leaving echoes of black licorice and sage with a top note of chalk dust. Easily the best young vintage of Cenerentola that I’ve ever tasted, the 2019 is a blend of 65% Sangiovese and 35% Foglia Tonda ... cellaring will take this to the next level. Drinking window: 2026Š2034. Score: 94 (Eric Guido, vinous.com, March 13, 2025) Full-bodied & Smooth 47665 (XD) 750 ml $70.95 2 Online & Flagship Exclusive 4 Organic product

FATTORIA LE PUPILLE ELISABETTA GEPPETTI POGGIO VALENTE 2022 IGT Toscana

Here is another knock-out bottle in this group of new releases from Fattoria le Pupille. The 2022 Poggio Valente is punchy and bright with terrific clarity of fruit. Winemaking has shifted over the years to prioritize larger oak botte. This change has allowed for more varietal expression with blue flower, heritage rose, tart cherry, rye bread and crushed stone. The wine’s flavor signature is wholly Mediterranean with hints of rosemary and lavender. The effect is especially luminous and lifted in 2022. This is an elegant wine with a unique voice. Drink date: 2025Š2040. Score: 95+ (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Feb. 20, 2025) Full-bodied & Firm 37254 (XD) 750 ml $49.95 2 Featured in Women in Wine
