Vinous
The 2019 Geremia is packed with dark blue/purplish fruit, gravel, incense, licorice, scorched earth and graphite. This potent Merlot packs quite the punch. Even with all of its intensity, the 2019 remains vibrant and full of energy.

The 2019 Geremia is mostly Merlot along with some Cabernet Sauvignon that was raised in a combination of French barrique and tonneaux. In the glass, it boasts a dark red/magenta color and is expressive on the nose with aromas of menthol, blackberries, dark cocoa, and rosemary. The palate is full and savory, with a compact structure, gravelly tannins, snappy acidity, and notes of tea leaf and Mediterranean herbs lasting on the finish.

James Suckling
A ripe nose but without excess. Some good complexity, with minerals, blackberries, blueberries, roasted red peppers and some dark chocolate. Tannins are convincingly fine and abundant, with a dusty, polished texture. A full-bodied, ripe and juicy Toscana that lasts well in the finish. Mostly merlot and cabernet sauvignon. Better in one or two years.

Wine Spectator
Plum, blackberry and toasty oak flavors are backed by dry, dusty tannins. The balance favors the tannins, and the finish is lightly astringent. Give this another year to come together. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2026 through 2042.
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.
