98 points and “Best Producer” (which a sticker on the bottle prodly proclaims) from Luca Maroni.
Also 96 points from the German site Belvini. (Stingy Germans!) They say:
Its opulent bouquet of sour cherries, black cherries, plums, cherry jam, dried fruit, violets, iris, sassafras (cinnamon tree), toffee, herbs and spices puts the nose in ecstasy. In the mouth, the Tuscan red impresses with the highest concentration, juice & power, the concentrated load of fruit - and at the same time amazes as a silky-smooth palate in perfect harmony. The fruits of the bouquet celebrate a juicy jam session with tangy blood orange, aromatic plum jam, some cola, liquorice and tart chocolate. Wild, gentle and at the same time uncomplicated, the Ser Passo makes a powerful impression.
And 98 points on CellarTracker, where this reviewer says:
Color, bright clear red; 1st nose, plums; 2nd nose, vanilla and red fruits; on the palate, balanced fruits and acidity big body with long finish. Great with pasta with red sauce and pizza.
This may not be your Grandmama’s Super-Tuscan, but man is it delicious!
