93 Points - Vinous Media:
"The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino Ginestreto is gorgeous and classic to the house style, with a cascade of dried black cherries, rose petals, cloves and spice, all complicated by hints of flowery undergrowth. It's silken and serene with ripe wild berry fruits and juicy acidity balanced by tactile mineral tones throughout. This finishes staining, long and spicy, yet leaves the mouth watering for more as traces of licorice and clove taper off. Wow." - Eric Guido (Sep 2024)

17++ Points - Jancis Robinson:
"From one vineyard. Fermented in tank and aged mainly in big (20-hl) oak for 60 months.
Light bricky red. Sweet fruit and sweet oak but also fragrant with wild blossom and a hint of mocha. Complex aroma. Deep, chewy, firmly grained tannins. Masses of integrity and depth of flavour. Bottled a few months ago and still needs more bottle age but has great potential." - Julia Harding (Feb 2024)
