vinous Antonio Galloni, August 2020, 95:
The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Buriano is another
incredibly distinctive wine. Inky and dark, with
striking complexity, Buriano offers a super
intriguing mix of varietal character and Chianti
Classico structure. That combination works so
well here. The 2016 spent 18 months in French
oak. It is powerful, exceptionally beautiful and
totally unique. Drink 2024 – 2036
