Wine Enthusiast Magazine (Monica Larner)
Campo di Mezzo 2007: 87/100
"This is a simple and straightforward Sangiovese from Central Italy with measured aromas of ripe berry fruit, cherry and spice. It offers spice-like flavors of clove and ground nutmeg in the mouth and matches those pungent tones with good density and freshness."
