Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Made with 90% Sangiovese, 10% Canaiolo and 10% Colorino, the Il Molino di Grace 2018 Gratius is punchy and bright. This wine fits neatly into the themes presented by the estate portfolio that prioritize freshness and verticality. Gratius shows medium fruit weight with fine-grain tannins. Dark fruit, plum and dried cherry give this wine a bigger sense of depth and width.

From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese).

The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
