Fattoria Del Cerro 2006 Caggio al Vescovo Colorino (Toscana)
- Online Exclusive
This is a beautifully extracted expression of Colorino (a native grape of Tuscany) with a dark, luscious appearance and musky notes of forest floor, moist earth and porcini mushroom. The wine is smooth and supple in the mouth and moves forward with grace despite its meaty consistency and slightly sweet aftertaste.

Fattoria Del Cerro 1999 Prugnolo Gentile (Rosso di Montepulciano)
- Best Buy
- $14
Wonderful smelling, with leather, clove and powerful black fruit. How nice to see a ’99 rosso doing so well now. The flavors on this wine are dynamite, a rustic and ready combo of cherry, cassis and blackberry. Finishes tight and firm, meaning it still has some time to go.

Fattoria Del Cerro 2004 Antonio da Sangallo White (Vin Santo di Montepulciano)
- Online Exclusive
- $39
A blend of Grechetto and Trebbiano, this attractive Vin Santo from the Montepulciano area of Tuscany offers aromas of resin, butterscotch, caramel, toasted almond and sun-dried apricot. A crisp close helps wash away any lingering sweetness.

Fattoria Del Cerro 2005 Antica Chiusina Prugnolo Gentile (Vino Nobile di Montepulciano)
- $80
There’s vibrant fresh fruit here in the form of cherries, forest berries and a touch of ripe strawberry backed by simple vanilla and spice. This is not an overly complex or cerebral wine, but it is a fresh, zesty one that would pair well with hearty bean soup or pasta.

Fattoria Del Cerro 2008 Red (Chianti Colli Senesi)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
Here’s a young Chianti from the Siena hills with a healthy dose of vibrant fruit that helps push the wine forward over the palate. You’ll recognize cherry, blueberry and a slight touch of roasted almond at the back. The wine is fresh, crisp and easy-drinking overall.

Fattoria Del Cerro 2001 Riserva Sangiovese (Vino Nobile di Montepulciano)
- Online Exclusive
The polar opposite of austere, this chunky Sangiovese yields bold aromas of berry syrup, cherry cough drop and cola. The palate is rich, with modest tannic firmness. Not overly concentrated or tight; it’s actually rather chewy and candied. Finishes meaty and easy.

Fattoria Del Cerro 1999 Sangiovese (Vino Nobile di Montepulciano)
- $30
Full and round, with plum, berry and herbal aromas. The racy, mouthfilling palate features raspberry, cherry and oak, while the finish delivers coffee and vanilla. A well-made Tuscan red.

Fattoria Del Cerro 1995 Antica Chiusina Sangiovese (Vino Nobile di Montepulciano)
- $35
Enticing dark-cherry and forest-floor scents show the cedary mark of oak aging. Medium-bodied, with cherry fruit that smoothly glides into tobacco and cedar on the finish. Mild tannins.
— J.C.
