91 Pts Ian Dagata - Vinous Media

"Bright, saturated ruby. Captivating, varietally accurate aromas of ripe red berries, dark plum, violet and licorice. Sweet-verging-on-exotic, with sound acids nicely framing the red cherry and delicately smoky plum fruit. An utterly beautiful, seamless wine further perked up by intriguing soy sauce and mineral notes and featuring an ultra-smooth, suave finish. There's a good amount of residual sweetness here that only adds to the creamy texture."

"An outstanding effort by Claudio Monaci (cousin of Giancarlo Pacenti of Siro Pacenti), who interestingly finds the 2007 wines almost too ripe and sweet. Monaci and consulting winemaker Maurizio Castelli often make beautifully traditional wines in this spartan, no-frills cellar." -91 points- Ian D'agata- International Wine Cellar

WINE:
"Medium ruby red color. Aromas of cherry, violet and candied citrus peel. Medium bodied with a hint of bright red fruit, blackberries and flowers with moderate finish. Piancornello Rosso drinks well now, but it will continue to improve for the next 3 to 4 years. Perfectly suitable with grilled or braised meat and the heartiest of classic Tuscan dishes." -Importer
