Volpaia Balifico 2021

A vibrant red, packed with juicy cherry, raspberry, floral and mineral flavors, this is expressive and approachable now. The dense, dusty tannins flex on the finish, while this is harmonious and long overall. More elegant than powerful and very classy. Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2026 through 2043. Score – 96. (Bruce Sanderson, winespectator.com, Oct. 31, 2024)
