2021 Donnafugata SurSur
Eric Guido, Vinous, July 2022
“The 2021 Grillo SurSur bursts from the glass with candied lemon offsetting tropical sour melon and floral tones. This impresses further with a pleasant inner sweetness contrasted by zesty green citrus and bright acidity. It finishes with medium length and leaves the palate with a dash of mouthwatering tension. The 2021 is a total pleasure and the perfect wine for the dog days of summer.”

Stephanie Johnson, Wine & Spirits, April 2019
“Year's Best Tuscan Reds & Best Buy - This wine has a silky texture and opulent ripeness that’s indicative of the warm 2015 growing season, and will appeal to fans of a more polished style of Chianti Classico. Notes of dried herbs and dark spices linger on the finish.”

2017 Donnafugata Tancredi Dolce&Gabbana
Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, February 2021
“Aromas of cassis, French oak, toasted nut and eucalyptus form the nose. The palate reflects the heat of the vintage, offering dried cherry, prune, powdered sage and coconut alongside close-grained tannins that leave a rather astringent finish.”

Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, February 2021

2018 M by Michael Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon
James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, October 2022
“A ripe, polished style, with currant, plum and blackberry preserves lined with mocha-accented toast, sweet tobacco and melted licorice. Stays reserved in feel overall and relies a bit on the toast, but there's ample fruit in reserve. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2023 through 2034. ”

2018 M by Michael Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon
James Suckling, James Suckling, September 2022
“Classy cabernet characters with red chili pepper, cassis and tobacco with some cocoa powder, incense and fine spices to the ripe plum and blackberries. Refined and precise, with a medium to full body teeming with blackberries. A natural, supple acidity is rounded by plenty of dusty tannins, Shows restraint and elegance in its long, subtle finish. Drink now.”
