Score 94/100 · Drink 2017-2027, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2015

The 2012 Ampeleia is shaping up to be fabulous. Deep, layered and incredibly vivid, the 2012 presents an intriguing mélange of sweet plum, black cherry, spice and new leather. The Ampeleia is the most overt of the wines, but it also happens to be the most complete. Today, the flavors are naturally quite primary, but all the 2012 needs is further time in bottle. Ampeleia is mostly Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese, with a healthy dollop of other red grapes.

A pure and beautiful wine with pure blueberries, cherries and currants. Full body, very fine tannins and a long and delicious finish. Super. Drink or hold.
