Vinous Media (93)- "The 2020 Taurasi Aurelia entrances with a gorgeous bouquet of crushed violets, autumnal spice, sweet smoke and plums. Harmonious and elegant in style, it offers ripe black fruits contrasted by sour citrus tones under an air of lavender and sage. A web of fine tannins adds a lovely framework through the long finish as a hint of dark chocolate and cedar shavings slowly fades. What a beauty. Have patience with the 2020, as it is a long-distance runner."
Vinous Media (92+)- "The 2019 Taurasi Aurelia blossoms in the glass with an attractive mix of dusty rose and exotic spice, complementing medicinal blackberry and hints of dark chocolate. It smooths over the palate in silky waves, with ripe red and black fruits underscored by saline minerals and hints of sour citrus. The 2019 finishes with a bitter twang and grippy yet maintains a lovely freshness through a bump of residual acidity. It will take some time to integrate its oak and tannins, but it will be time well spent. "
Wine Enthusiast (90)- "Peppery gaminess up front on the nose of this wine rolls into a cake-like mixture of berries and spices. Like a mirror image of the nose, cherries, blackberries and dark chocolate pop off the palate, followed by cured meat and black pepper notes that are swept away by mouthclearing tannins."
