Vinous Media (93)- "Wild, peppery herbs, menthol, bright cherries, blueberry skins and a whiff of vanillin oak all come together as the 2018 Merlot Mossone opens in the glass. This is like pure silk on the palate, yet with a savory wave of woodland berries, minerals and inner earth tones that penetrate deeply. Nervous acidity and a bump of tangerine adds gravitas, leading into its long, structured and almost-smoky finale. The Mossone is all about youthful tension today, yet all the components are in place for a long, steady and pleasure-filled evolution."
