The wine comes from a neighbouring walled vineyard around the Villa di Trefiano, which produces a wonderfully elegant variant of Carmignano. Trefiano Riserva remains in used 350-litre tonneaux for 18 months after spontaneous fermentation. Bright, noble ruby red colour. Black cherry and cassis on the nose, with an intense, ripe and juicy plum flavour. Long, multi-layered and complex on the palate, the Riserva needs a little more air and shows a little more depth than the classic Carmignano. The 10% Canaiolo component ensures its irresistible fragrance and complexity, simply marvellous! SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, brightening ruby red colour. Fragrant nose, inviting, of ripe raspberries, cherries, plus fine mint flavours, blood orange, wax. Red berry fruit on the palate, juicy, with a fine salinity, very elegant at the front." Falstaff

"The black cherry and blackberry fruit of this austere red wine is hidden under its dense tannins. Notes of earth, iron, eucalyptus and tobacco are present, and it finishes with a slight astringency. The long finish suggests that this wine is still closed at the moment." Wine Spectator

"Spicy and a little earthy with ripe dark fruit, notes of cured meat, walnuts and bark. Medium to full-bodied with firm, slightly firm tannins. Polished and chalky with juicy fruit underneath. Velvety finish." James Suckling

"Spicy, intense and full of potential, the 2019 Carmignano Riserva Trefiano lifts from the glass with a burst of white smoke, peppery rose and crushed raspberries. This displays a radiant core of ripe red and black fruits, opening with a grippy sensation as fine-grained tannins saturate the palate. The 2019 finishes with dramatic length and tension, puckering the cheeks while a staining of primary concentration adds a youthful chewiness. While incredibly young, the balance here is otherworldly." Vinous
