Tasting great on day 3. Acidic on balance and good with food. Mature floral and earthy nose with medium palate and good finish. What a deal for seven bucks. — 8 years ago

The 2019 Sangiovese Superiore Le More explodes from the glass with a perfumed wave of chalk dust, wild berries, shavings of cedar and pine. It’s soft and energetic, with mineral-tinged plums, cherries and savory herbal tones. The 2019 tapers off with a sour twang of citrus and inner rose. $14.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, November 2021) — 3 years ago

A distanza di un paio di anni dall'ultimo assaggio l'ho trovato ancora in ottima forma e senza quell'eccesso di alcool della volta scorsa. Un infante. — 8 years ago

At the Mt.Pollino tasting i organised at the Oil Mill Santamaria here in Castelluccio Superiore (Basilicata).
The wine is produced on the other side of the mountain, in Calabria, but still at a fairly high altitude of about 500mt.
It's a Mantonico Pinto 100%, another grape that risked to disappear a while ago and that instead is giving great joy to the few producer that have embarked the venture to deal with it.
It's a unique grape, quite aromatic which makes people identify this particular wine nearly sweet even though the sugar has been all transformed in alcohol (not much though..12.5%)
It has a good body, good freshness and all the potential to age few years IMO.
During fermentation there a little maceration and then 8 months of stainless steel container before being bottled.
Just a touch of SO2 added at the vwry end.
Great aperitif. Very recognisable — 2 years ago

Lovely! Tertiary underbrush and potpourri laced the still vibrant dark red cooked fruits. — 5 years ago
