Vinous: 95+ Points
Plum sauce, pencil lead, clove, balsamic spice, mint, rosemary, stone dust, rose petals and more... Each time the 2016 Taurasi Riserva Piano di Monte Vergine is tilted in the glass, it seems to reveal further depths. This is simply stunning, casting silken textural waves of tart wild berry fruit, citrus tones and brilliant acidity. Energetic yet still youthfully tense and structured, its web of fine-grained tannins appears late, slowly clamping down as a rosemary and tangerine resonance mingles and fizzles out. The 2016 Piano di Monte Vergine is a classic in the making.
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
An important wine that raised the bar in this storied appellation, the Feudi di San Gregorio 2016 Taurasi Riserva Piano di Montevergine shows well-managed evolution, polished tannins, dark fruit and lots of savory spice and campfire ash. There is some dusty mineral too that adds definition and complexity.
