Reviews
James Suckling – “Aromas of charcoal, grilled meat, blackberry and baked raspberry. Medium-bodied with silky tannins and juicy fruit. Very herbal on the palate. Thyme and rosemary. Lingering finish. Rather complex and well balanced.” (93 Pts)
Wine Advocate – “The 2019 Benito Ferrara Vigna Quattro Confini Irpinia reveals a pretty personality with plenty of wild berry, rose and blackcurrant. The wine gracefully escapes the trappings of appearing too heavy or extracted, and that lighter style makes it approachable and easy to drink. You might try it with a simple pasta and ground meat ragù. Production is 10,000 bottles.” (90 Pts)
