Vinous Media (88)- "The 2023 Rosso Piceno Ste is rich and fruit-forward, with a burst of crushed blackberries, cherries, rosy florals and white pepper hints. This is juicy with a core of tart wild berry fruits and zesty acidity that keeps the energy high throughout. It finishes with medium length. It leaves the palate completely reset for another sip. The STE is a no-frills blend of 70% Montepulciano and 30% Sangiovese."
Vinous Media (89)- "The 2021 Rosso Piceno Ste wafts up from the glass with a fresh and peppery bouquet, as roses and violets give way to crushed blackberries. It’s soft-textured with zesty acidity that motivates its tart wild berry fruits, as a vivid note of violet pastille forms toward the close. The 2021 finishes with grippy tannins, but also remarkably fresh, leaving hints of licorice to slowly fade. The Ste, a blend of 70% Montepulciano and 30% Sangiovese, will perform best at the dinner table."
