Wine Spectator: 92 Points

A complex version, this red sports plum, blackberry, leather, earth, camphor and eucalyptus aromas and flavors. Though vivid and incisive with its core of fruit, dusty tannins grip the finish, where an oak spice element lingers. Be patient, here. Best from 2023 through 2042. 1,500 cases made, 375 cases imported. — BS

Decanter Magazine: 90 Points

Castello di Volpaia produces two Gran Selezione. Coltassala, is a historic 3.5 hectare single vineyard. While replanting has been ongoing since the 1980s, the Stianti family has preserved the DNA of the original Sangiovese and Mammolo vines. In 2017, this was picked on September 22nd after a much-needed rainfall refreshed the vines. It is a very intense expression and will need some time to sort itself out. The nose is meaty with coffee and grilled herb aromas taking hold. Full-bodied and richly fruited but rather angular in structure with oak notes sitting on top, this is definitely in an awkward phase.
