Decanter (96)Planted in 1996, La Lucére distinguishes itself from San Filippo’s other sites with its full eastern exposure and silty, sandstone soil. The 2019 harvest saw multiple passages from the end of September through to the first week of October. It takes its time to unravel, progressing from exotic and integrated oak spice and cedar forest to intense cherry and currants with hints of fennel, pressed flowers and dark chocolate. Glossy wood adds weight and breadth to a mouthful of stones and cherry pit. The tannins are smooth and tightly woven while fresh, steely acidity cuts vertically giving magnificent vibrancy. It lingers quite tenaciously, with juxtaposing bitter coffee and vanilla cherry. |

Vinous (91)The 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Ugolforte is quite reticent at this stage, showing a dusty mix of woodland red berries, with hints of savory spice, leather and dried florals. On the palate, silky textures are offset by tart cherry fruit, with cool-toned acids and minerals adding lift in an expression that seems both savory and feminine. The finish is medium in length and quite pretty, resonating on red inner florals and fruits, with a lingering spry acidity and the slightest hint of fine tannin. This is already quite easy to enjoy, and it should do well over the medium-term in the cellar. |

Vinous (95)Deep, dark red fruits and exotic spices give way to hints of menthol, flowery undergrowth and tobacco as the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Ugolforte unfolds in the glass. It’s silky-smooth and cool-toned with ripe woodland berries, hints of clove and blood orange. Fine tannins coat the palate, but energy remains high due to vibrant acidity, as this tapers off with a salty, almost silty minerality under rosy inner florals. The 2016 spent only six months in second-pass barriques before being completed in 30-hectoliter Slavonian oak for another 40 months. Retasting this wine with another year of bottle age was a total pleasure. |

Celebrated for its exceptional vintage, the San Giorgio Brunello di Montalcino Ugolforte 2017 expertly captures the essence of Tuscany's idyllic winegrowing region. Crafted by San Giorgio, a prestigious winery with an illustrious heritage in the heart of Montalcino, it embodies both traditional refinement and detailed viticulture. This remarkable Brunello displays the winery's commitment to bio-dynamic practices, using hand-selected Sangiovese Grosso grapes from old vines. Aged for 36 months in Slavonian oak barrels, the wine is a testament to meticulous ageing that enhances its complexity. It boasts an enchanting dark ruby hue, while the nose reveals fragrant notes of cherry, leather, and spice. On the palate, this Brunello offers bold flavours of ripe red fruit, with a touch of earthy truffle, and a lingering finish. The San Giorgio Brunello di Montalcino Ugolforte 2017 is an unmistakable mark of Italian wine craftsmanship. |

Splendidly balanced and elegantly structured, this sapphire-hued premium Brunello di Montalcino offers a persistent and sophisticated finish.

Jeb Dunnuck (93)The cellar process for the 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino Ugolforte is the same as Poggio di Sotto, but the clonal selection is different. A jeweled ruby color, the nose is very pretty, with pure notes of ripe raspberry liqueur, pressed flowers, sweet herbs, and incense. Medium-bodied, it's elegant and juicy on the palate, retaining wonderful freshness, with ripe tannins and a supple texture. The palate is approachable, with good length, and it should have a wide window for enjoyment over the coming 10-15 years. |

Wine Advocate (94)From a balanced vintage that delivers acidity and structure, the organic 2021 Chianti Classico reveals a shiny dark garnet color and a clean, mid-weight appearance. There's so much energy and vibrancy on the bouquet, which is a quality that Sangiovese achieves when growing conditions are ideal. Tangy cherry, cassis, blue flower, violet and soft earth give this wine an authentic sense of place. So do the elegant mineral notes. This is a special wine (that is priced very competitively). |

This wine marks a break from the other beautiful wines in this estate portfolio, thanks to its ethereal freshness and lifted brightness. It finishes with silky, polished tannins.

Sweet red cherry jam, kirsch, menthol, chalk, wild flowers and truffles give the 2007 its exotic, sensual personality. It is a terrific choice for drinking now, but also has more than enough depth to age well for many years to come.

A rush of super-ripe dark red fruit, blood orange, mint, chalk, truffle and dried flowers builds into the huge, resonant finish.

I don’t think any estate in Tuscany has ever turned out two back to back wines that equal San Giusto's Ricolma in 2015 and 2016. Lavender, graphite, crushed rocks, sage, licorice and crème de cassis all build in a potent yet refined Merlot. A wine of mind-blowing purity, density and explosive power, the 2016 is flat out stunning in every way. Readers who can find the 2016 should not hesitate, as it is epic in every way. |

There is plenty of Sangiovese nuance in this large-scaled, voluptuous wine. All the elements are very nicely balanced in the 2007. This isn’t a huge, structured vintage of Percarlo, but in exchange the wine should drink well earlier than some of the more powerful surrounding vintages, namely 2006 and 2008. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027. |

Wine Advocate (96)One of Italy's most cherished Merlots, the organic San Giusto a Rentennano 2021 La Ricolma is stitched carefully together with a very bright fruit note that recalls sweet cherry and crème de cassis. Those softly ripened fruit tones are followed by sweet spice and cured tobacco. The wine hits the palate with power, in part fueled by a 15% alcohol content, but it also fully envelops the senses with soft tannins and rich concentration. |

Wine Advocate (96)The 2007 Percarlo flows across the palate with tons of depth and richness. It is one of the few Tuscan 2007s that hasn’t been too distorted by the heat of the year. There is plenty of Sangiovese nuance in this large-scaled, voluptuous wine. All the elements are very nicely balanced in the 2007. This isn’t a huge, structured vintage of Percarlo, but in exchange the wine should drink well earlier than some of the more powerful surrounding vintages, namely 2006 and 2008. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027. |
