Wine Advocate (Monica Larner) 96 pts! The Castello dei Rampolla 2020 Sammarco is a celebrated blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese from beautiful Panzano in Chianti. This is an abundant and explosive expression that delivers beautiful intensity with sharp black fruits backed by a mineral or metallic note of iron ore or rusty nail. The wine remains very focused and direct over a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel with velvety tannins.
Antonio Galloni 95 pts! The 2020 Sammarco is all finesse. Silky and understated in feel, the 2020 offers up scents of dark fruit, graphite, incense, new leather and dried herbs. Vibrant acids extend the mid-palate and finish. What a beauty. The 2020 is 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 3% Sangiovese. It spent 12 months in wood—barrique and tonneau for the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and 12HL cask for the Sangiovese. (Drink between 2027 - 2040)
