Wine Critic Reviews
The 2018 Terre di San Leonardo offers bright intensity and lots of dark fruit with easy spice, fresh blackberry and subtle mineral tones. A quote on the label reads in Italian "la Terra é l'anima del nostro mestiere" (Soil is the soul of our craft). This entry-level red wine seeks to offer transparency, freshness and an authentic interpretation of a unique Italian territory.

The 2018 Terre di San Leonardo is peppery and floral with crushed wild berries and pomegranate. This is a soft and focused expression, with an inner herbal character and tart red and black berries that cascade across its mineral core. It leaves a staining of primary concentration and hints of sour citrus, along with a coating of round tannins that frames the expression well. The 2018 has a lean and very classic San Leonardo personality. That said, it will be best enjoyed with a meal.
