Wine Advocate
(10/29/2015) "The 2010 Il Blu is 50% Sangiovese with some Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in oak for up to 20 months. This gorgeous wine shows incredible seamlessness with smooth aromas of cherry and blackberry that fold neatly into savory tones of spice and leather. The quality of the winemaking is impeccable. Il Blu is especially profound in the mouth, where it shows supple tannins and long persistency. It boasts integrated acidity and well-managed tannins. The 2010 vintage shows youthful, nervous energy that bodes well for its future evolution. Drink Date: 2015 - 2028."

(10/31/2017) "The 2014 Orma is a Tuscan blend of Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc executed with evident inspiration from Bordeaux. The wine shows a deep, dark appearance with rich consistency and a full-bodied approach. The bouquet delivers the power and integrity that you can expect of this celebrated Tuscan blend, although the mouthfeel does not show the same level of extraction or power. This is a good thing, in my opinion, as the 2014 vintage offers a level of understated elegance that you don't usually get from a wine of this more international and contemporary approach. Drink Date: 2017 - 2026."

Poggerino "Primamateria" Toscano Rosso 2016
95
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(8/2019) "The 2016 Primamateria, the estate's Sangiovese/Merlot blend, is another exceptional wine in this range. Raspberry jam, spice, new leather, dried flowers and mocha lend striking aromatic nuance. The 2016 is sleek, ripe and exceptionally polished, not to mention flat out delicious. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2036."

Tenuta di Valgiano "Palistorti" Colline Lucchesi Rosso 2017
92
Our Score
(4/2020) This might just be the best vintage ever of the still underappreciated "Palistorti" from Tenuta di Valgiano. Biodynamically-farmed (certified) vines of predominantly Sangiovese with a bit of Syrah and Merlot, is really a vineyard/vine selection. The same blend of vines from the same estate, made in much the same way comprises Valgiano's flagship wine, but this wine comes in with about 1/3 the price tag. As the younger vines gain age, there is increasing density and length in this bottling, and for the first time it received the "Tre Bicchieri" top honor from the Gambero Rosso this year! Lucca has been a meeting ground for French vines and Tuscany's Sangiovese, there's nothing "modernist" in the approach. No abundance of new oak, no overripeness. The wine has radiant energy, a modest 13% alcohol, but great intensity. Expect notes of black cherry, red florals, brown spice, pepper, loam, fern. But expect the unexpected as this will drink easily for a decade from vintage.

Tenuta di Valgiano "Palistorti" Colline Lucchesi Rosso 2016
91+
Our Score
(6/2019) A stunning value for a single-estate Demeter-certified biodynamic wine, Palistorti is a selection of younger vines planted to sandier soils on the Tenuta di Valgiano property. Composed of approximately 70% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot and 10% Syrah, this classic 2016 vintage is impressively balanced, resonating with black cherry, red florals, spice, earth and mint. The complexity will develop even further over time, as this gem should continue to drink well through 2026.

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(7/2019) "The 2016 Al Passo, Tolaini's Sangiovese/Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blend is bold and juicy, not to mention absolutely delicious. Fresh, vibrant and full of character, the 2016 hits all the right notes. Sangiovese red fruits are nicely pushed forward. Al Passo is such a pretty and inviting wine in 2017. I very much like the energy here. Bright aromatic top notes add a kick of energy on the finish. Drinking window: 2020 - 2030
