That Il Colombaio di Santa Chiara is not only clearly ahead with the famous Vernaccia di San Gimignano, the family winery also proves with its Rosato Cremisi.

Wine Enthusiast

A more than respectable performance for a so-called basic Lagrein: minty freshness, accentuated by floral notes and a hint of white pepper. The 2019 Lagrein still seems a little hesitant to show its full potential today, but the first sip already reveals a deep, silky texture. This is matched by a crisp red and black fruit flavour, driven by juicy acidity and plenty of pressure. Very impressive and with potential! SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep red with violet hues, the 2021 Lagrein wafts up with a bouquet of crushed blackberries, cloves and sage. Silky and enveloping, this impresses with its contrasting blend of tart wild berry fruits and zesty acidity as saline minerals add a tactile feel. This finishes long and structured yet still lively, leaving a classically dry impression while keeping the taster returning to the glass for more." Vinous

Palmina comes from 45-year-old vines, is only produced in very small quantities and is an extremely successful example of a single-varietal Sangiovese Rosato and one of the best in Tuscany.

The fruity taste has an enchantingly elegant structure, juicy and fresh, with a very appealing finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"This is perfumed and attractive with ripe nectarines, pink cherries, cherry blossom and grapefruit skins. Round and textured, medium-bodied, with a ripe but fresh citrusy character. Delicious." James Suckling
