Decanter96 pts

The 2021 Ombrone is a masterful creation, showcasing precise cassis fruit, cherry compote, sweet tobacco, black truffle, and loamy earth aromatics—all of which unfold gracefully across the medium-bodied palate. It’s framed by sinewy tannins with a fibrous intensity that promises to mellow with time, underscored by zesty acidity and polished river stone minerality. One of the brighter, more energetic and complex Rossos from Cupano, it approaches the intensity and nuance of the standout 2020 vintage.

This might be the best vintage in Tuscany's modern era; ample spring rains got the vines through the hot summer, while harvesttime saw ideal weather for picking
