Very powerful with intense blackberry and black fruits with licorice. Very intense nose. It’s full-bodied and long. It’s velvety textured with so much richness and fruit. Powerful. Better than I remember. Rating: 97 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (Aug 2011)

The subtle bright fruit and elegant poise of this wine only hint at the greatness to come from this Syrah. Fine tannins, bright acidity and tightly packed plumy fruit. It also comes in a very heavy bottle. Rating: 93 The Wine Gang - www.thewinegang.com (Apr 2011)

The estate’s 2007 Syrah Migliara, from an old-vine plot, impresses for its detail, nuance and clarity. In many ways it reminds me of Angelo Gaja’s Sori Tildin in its jewel-like precision and multi-faceted personality. Impossibly fine, ripe tannins frame perfumed red fruit, mint, minerals and spices all the way through to a sublime, eternal finish that seems to never end. What a thrill it will be to follow this wine in the coming years. Readers will have a hard time not opening this now, but the Migliara should be even better in a few years. Today it is merely magnificent. Stylistically the Migliara is more refined than Il Bosco. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027. Rating: 96 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2010)

Tenimenti Luigi d'Alessandro

Massimo d'Alessandro is passionate about the Rhone and Syrah in particular. Having long since identified the 'terroir' and micro-climate of his Cortona vineyards as being almost identical to that of the Northern Rhone, he imported the best Viognier and Syrah clones, densely planted in the early 1990s, and set about making the best wines of the region. His Syrah is now rated world-class, particularly in vintages such as 2001 and 2004.
