89 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The 2016 Teroldego Rotaliano opens to a dark and richly saturated appearance. The bouquet is bold and luscious with thick layers of black fruit, spice and tobacco. This medium to full-bodied red wine is aged in both large oak casks and cement vats. Drink: 2018-2023. (Dec 2018)"
Producer notes: "Made entirely of organically grown Teroldego grapes, picked around the end of September; bunches are entirely destemmed, 50% of the berries are left whole. Color is a gorgeous opaque violet-tinged purple; on nose and palate the wine makes me think of cooler-climate Syrah with hints of Cabernet Franc, very berryish, meaty, some Assam tea notes, some herbal notes, rusty/meaty hints, big but not at all bitter. Fresh palate, long finish with almond note. Drink with red meat, flavorful pasta dishes, cheeses, game."
