Critical Acclaim

WE94
Wine Enthusiast - "Altesino delivers a wonderfully harmonious wine that invites one delicious sip after another thanks to its polished intensity. Subtle wood shadings appear in the background of bright cherry and blackberry. Overall, what distinguishes this wine is the sense of focus, sharpness and purity."

WS92
Wine Spectator - "Shows bright berry, earth, mushroom and leather on the nose. Full-bodied, with very ripe, almost raisiny fruit. Tight and lean now, but the rich fruit comes through on the finish. Give this time. Best after 2011. 10,000 cases made."

Kyle Phillips's Italian Wine Review(IWR) 2 stars(very good to excellent)
Deep almandine with black reflections and almandine rim paling almost to onion skin. The bouquet is a bit rustic, with balsamic notes mingled with cherry fruit and a fair amount of alcohol, with underlying berry fruit acidity and some sea salt. On the palate it's fairly rich, with languid, leathery cherry fruit supported by warm balsamic acidity and by tannins that are fairly smooth, and flow into a warm rather balsamic cherry finish. It's distinctly old style (not traditional), and if you like the style you will enjoy it very much; it will drink well with flavorful grilled meats, and has the wherewithal to age nicely for quite some time, becoming lacy in a leathery sort of way. If you prefer more, and fresher (not necessarily sweeter or riper), fruit, it won't work for you.
