Along with the majestic 2010 one of my favorite Stella vintages. So giving right off the bat, never any heat even in this warm vintage, just so fresh and clean wafting stunning perfumed aromatics with an elegant, detailed and voluminous palate. Always an amazing expression of Sangiovese.

One of my absolute favorite Stella vintages. So giving right off the bat, never shows any heat even in warm vintages, just so fresh and clean with bright pure and voluminous fruit, spices and licorice with balanced acids and a cool minerality. Always such an amazing expression of Sangiovese and without question my favorite.

This is now my new favorite vintage for Stella. It has a stunning bouquet and explodes from the glass flaunting ripe red cherry fruit, violets, rose petals, licorice and gravel. There is an incredible purity to its fruit expression and it’s seamlessly balanced with fresh acidity and shows absolutely zero heat from the warm vintage. It’s elegant, sensual and seductive and just couldn’t be more giving after just a short decant. An exceptional vintage for Stella.

One to sit and savor, aged so nicely and softened tannins. Wonderful.
