James Suckling (94)

A powerful and tannic wine with mushroom, forest flower, bark, and black tea aromas and flavors. Full and chewy. 94

BOW (8.75)

Jancis Robinson (17)

La Morra. Cerequio. Aged for 18 months in French oak barriques and tonneaux, with a tiny percentage of new oak, followed by 18 months in large Slavonian oak casks.
Just mid ruby. Brooding and still quite subdued on the nose, with savoury, spicy, salty touches. Very elegant but tightly stitched palate. Fresh acidity that is almost a little racy and with bags of coating tannins that become more upfront on the finish and that need more time. Long and focused, but still backward. (WS)
