    The fruit for this wine comes from a single vineyard that stretches over the crest of a hill. The name Schiena d'Asino (donkey ridge) is a reminder of this unique geography. The purity of the fruit is breathtaking and the wine emphasises the qualities that make Sangiovese one of the noblest of all Italian grapes. It offers a crystalline intensity with forthcoming flavours of bright cherries, balsamic herbs, aniseed, pressed violets and spice. This ensemble is balanced and nuanced. It shows amazing depth and complexity. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Sparkling ruby garnet colour. Clear and profound nose, rich notes of ripe heart cherries, blackberries, tobacco and some molasses. Polished attack and finish, fine-meshed tannins in many layers, interwoven with fine melting, firm pressure." Falstaff

    "The 2019 vintage delivers powerful flavours with black and violet fruits. There are also spices and charcoal flavours from the extended ageing in the cellar. It finishes with grainy flavours of espresso or Turkish coffee and a generous, full-bodied mouthfeel. Only 5,928 bottles were produced." Wine Advocate

    "Bright fruit on the nose, raspberries, fresh peach skin and citrus notes such as orange peel, plus violets and earthy minerality. Full-bodied, with mouth-filling, very aromatic concentration, crisp acidity and velvety, orange-soaked tannins. As with a wine destined for ageing, there is a controlled austerity. A real beauty now, but it will continue to develop for many years to come." James Suckling

    "Dusty blackberries, sweet spices, cloves, grated sage, cedar and smoke - all of these can be found in the Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Schiena d'Asino 2019. Velvety, almost creamy yet lively, it washes over the palate with a dense wave of mineral-tinged dark red fruits underlined by salty minerals, all held together by a core of vibrant acidity. The finish is long and concentrated, with angular tannins that require patience to fully resolve. This is a glorious interpretation of the Vigna Schiena d'Asino." Vinous
