The 2000 Falesco Vitiano is absolutely outstanding! This is truly a world-class wine for an incredible value. I found this wine to quite powerful with a plumy nose, bold complexity and slight oak after tones. Overall the 2000 Falesco Vitiano is quite well balanced for a wine of this vintage, yet with a few more years in my cellar I’m confident that this wine will be simply marvelous.

What a wine. Strong taste, bold flavor. It lasts and lasts on the palate. A pleasant surprise at a magnificent price point. I am glad I took your recommendation. Highly recommended with red meat, or other strong flavored foods.

I WAS ASTONISHED WHEN I'VE TRIED VITIANO IN 1998. I HAD NO REFERENCE ABOUT FALESCO WINES BACK THEN AND JUST WANTED TO TRY THIS WINE FROM UMBRIA. I COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT A WINE (THEN FOR ABOUT $8.00 A BOTTLE) COULD HAVE SO MUCH CHARACTER. SAME REACTION I'VE HAD WHEN I TRIED THE 2000 MERLOT. GREAT WINES, GREAT PRICE.

The 2000 Falesco Vitiano is a great wine. Very big, jammy fruit and very little wood, and, as such, goes with almost any food. It is an unbelievable bargain.

This is the best value in an Italian wine--no, ANY wine--I've come across in years. Unbelievable complexity for a wine in this price range. My case has only lasted about two months since this is a perfect everyday drinking wine.

Yummy, great every day wine. Good body, dense purple color. Put it up against a $30 wine at your next tasting - betcha people like this one best.

The Italians have learned the secret to American wines, blending in some Cabernet and Merlot. The Super Tuscans are great but pricey. Now you can get an EXCEPTIONAL bottle of wine for around $10 that will demonstrate the dynamics of the sangoveise grape. Buy a case...excellent for a party gift or present (if you don't end up drinking all of them). This wine won't be $10 a bottle in two years, it wil be well above.
