Wine Advocate: 93 Points

I tasted bottle number 417 of only 949 produced. The 2014 Orcia Petrucci (made with organically farmed fruit) offers a generous and full succession of fruit flavors such as ripe cherry, forest fruit and dark plum. These flavors wrap softly over the palate and hint at more ripeness that was easily achieved despite the cool vintage. As the wine settles in the glass, it begins to show darker tones of tar, smoke and moist potting soil. That snappy acidity kicks in at the close, to leave the palate refreshed. The only unanswered question is why is the price tag so high, but I assume it is because quantities are so low. Anticipated Maturity: 2019-2028
