Critics Scores
Wine Spectator
A ripe, intense red, this exhibits black cherry, blackberry, earth and spice aromas and flavors, with the balance tipping toward the oak and tannins. Firmly structured, but ready now with aeration and the right food. Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino.
James Suckling
This is opulent and fresh with cedar, berry, tobacco and orange-peel aromas and flavors. Medium body, firm tannins and a flavorful finish. Precise and powerful center palate. Fabulous length. A blend of sangiovese, canaiolo and colorino.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
With fruit from 60-year-old vines, the 2011 Colore is a precious blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino in equal parts. This is a highly singular wine made in very reduced quantities (only 2,000 bottles were produced). This mid weight expression shows a dark garnet color and moderate luminosity. That muted color is recognized across the very artisanal wines made by Bibi Graetz. The quality of fruit is bitter and raw and there is some sourness on the close. Having said that, enthusiasts will appreciate these one-off wines, especially with regards to how they relate to the strong personalities that create them. Lingering ash, smoke and dark licorice add subtle elegance on the finish. The only point of contention is the price tag.
