James Suckling
A solid red with juicy fruit, plenty of cherry and light balsamic character. Full and chewy. Bright acidity. A solid, well-made Vino Nobile.

Wine Enthusiast
Wild berry, dark culinary spice, purple flower and a whiff of aromatic herb are some of the aromas you'll find on this vibrant red. The elegant medium-bodied palate shows pomegranate, tart cherry, clove and star anise alongside bright acidity and polished tannins. Drink over the next several years.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Stylistically speaking, this wine stands apart from its peers. It shows a deep inner core of dark fruit that is solid and compact. The 2014 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano from Boscarelli is recommended to anyone curious to taste this historic Tuscan appellation. The fruit here is bright and vibrant. The wine offers ample depth and volume.

Wine & Spirits
This wine shows good ripeness despite the cool, rainy vintage, but it’s tightly structured and austere at first. It begins to flesh out with exposure to air, showing hints of nutmeg and black pepper that complement the pure black-cherry fruit, the flavors riding on a wave of brisk acidity. Give it a couple of years to unwind.

Wine Spectator
Bright, evoking cherry, floral and mineral flavors. Light-bodied and elegant, yet with ample grip from tannins and acidity. Drink now through 2023.
Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.
A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
