“Riparosso” Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC 2022
Illuminati's Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riparosso has a sweet scent of violets and lavender, followed by crushed blackberries and chalk dust. It washes over the palate with soft textures and ripe wild berries, contrasted towards the end by sour citrus fruits. It finishes perfumed and with admirable length, leaving a layer of dusty tannins that tug at the cheeks. Very Italian - very well made. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2022 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riparosso opens with a dark floral blend of wilted violets and lavender that fades into crushed blackberries and sage. It is soft and round with a silky texture and an abundance of ripe red and black fruits. A salty minerality adds tension to the 2022's finish with medium length and soft tannins." Vinous
"Plum, cherry jam, aniseed and sweet spices on the nose. Full-bodied, with powdery tannins and cinnamon-like spice notes on the finish. Also spicy." James Suckling
"The nose is tangy and earthy, with aromas of cherry, blackberry, blood orange, fennel and topsoil. The oranges and blackberries take center stage on the palate, although lean tannins and vibrant acid accentuate the earthiness." Wine Enthusiast

“Vernaiolo” Chianti DOCG 2023
Vernaiolo is one of the oldest members of the Rocca delle Macìe family and has always been the estate's most traditional example of Chianti. Its name is derived from the Latin vernāle, which means "of spring" and indicates the season in which the Chianti was bottled after it had survived the winter. Even today, this lively, ruby-red wine is ready to drink in the spring after the harvest and retains its fresh and fruity characteristics for a long time.
Fruity red with lots of dried berries and a hint of dried flowers and milk chocolate. Medium body, round tannins and a fresh finish. Delicious and very entertaining. SUPERIORE.DE
"A juicy, fruity and delicious Chianti with cherries, raspberries and warm spices on the nose. It has a medium body with fine tannins. Round and juicy, with a velvety core of cherries and a satisfying finish." James Suckling

“San Lorenzo” Rosso Conero DOC 2022
Pure Montepulciano from the San Lorenzo vineyard: garnet red in colour with almost black reflections. Sweet autumnal spices, mint and cedar wood on the nose before revealing its core of medicinal cherry. Silky and smooth on the palate, it delights with its ripe red and blue fruits, while the tannins slowly build up towards the end. In the long and lightly structured final, notes of tangerine mingle with blueberry peel and chalky minerals. San Lorenzo is incredibly pretty and has a beautiful harmony and balance. SUPERIORE.DE
"Raspberries, red cherries, orange peel and fresh herbs on the nose. Fresh and firm on the palate, with a medium body and a rustic feel." James Suckling

“Capitel Lucchine” Valpolicella Classico DOC 2022
The Lucchine is rich and firm with beautiful cherry fruit and sweet spices on the palate. A juicy and inexpensive wine from a good vineyard that gives us great pleasure every year. SUPERIORE.DE
"The only Valpolicella without oak. This wine resembles a more mature Bardolino or, to put it this way, a Venetian Beaujolais, as it is so lively and vibrant. Light and juicy, with a thread of crisp acidity that carries sour red fruits, plums and dried herbs long and easy. Delicious! One of the best young Valpolicella I've tasted in a while." James Suckling
"On the nose, this wine shines with aromas of fresh rose and violet, with hints of strawberries and cranberries in the background. On the palate, the tart red berries shine with a hint of pepper and fresh earth." Wine Enthusiast

James Suckling was the lead taster for Italy and Bordeaux at Wine Spectator, America's most widely read wine magazine, for almost 30 years. Since 2010, he has had his own wine portal on the internet, where he focuses mainly on the "Great Wines" from Italy and Bordeaux, and with prominent fellow tasters such as Marie v. Ahm, on Champagne, Australia, New Zealand, California, Chile and Argentina, and of course on his second passion, cigars.
For some years now, he has also been organising attractive wine events, such as "Bellissimo Brunello" tastings in the USA and various "Luxury" tastings in Asia, where he enjoys a high profile thanks to his involvement in the various editions of Asia Tatler. James Suckling is today one of the best-known wine critics worldwide.
Like all American wine critics, he rates on the 100-point system. He says: Wines that he rates with 90 and more points can be bought without hesitation; he likes to drink them himself. All wines with more than 95 points are "must buys". SUPERIORE.DE
