Rated 93 by Wine Spectator
A thickly textured red, packed with solid tannins, this delivers mulberry, plum, iron, cedar and tar flavors. Monolithic today, with tannins leaving a strong grip on the long finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2024 through 2038. 833 cases made, 50 cases imported.

Rated 92 by Decanter
The dreamlike website of Campo alle Comete is a unique way to showcase the wines - a new project of Feudi San Gregorio in Tuscany which has begun to show some consistency despite the trick vintage. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot is dominated by a clay minerality and thick extraction, not without intriguing notes of violet, plums and a blonde pipe tobacco finish. Firm, grainy, youthful tannins need more time to evolve.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this opens with aromas of mature black-skinned berries, roasted coffee bean and cedar. The concentrated palate offers black currant, licorice, mocha and tobacco alongside fine-grained tannins. Drink 2022–2030.
Winery
COLOR: Deep ruby red color with violet hues. NOSE: Intense ruby red color. It shows a very complex nose, red fruits notes with hints of sour cherries followed by balsamic aromas of mint and bitter cocoa with light grassy notes. FLAVOR: The palate is elegant thanks to the smooth tannins, with a remarkable volume and a long finish.

Region: Tuscany

The beautiful region of Tuscany has been associated with wine production for almost three thousand years, and as such is one of the oldest and most highly respected wine producing regions in the world. The hot, sunny climate supports quite a wide range of grapes, but the grape varietals most widely grown across this large region are Sangiovese and Vernaccia, both of which are used in the production of Tuscany's most distinctive red and white wines. Cabernet Sauvignon and other imported grape varietals have also flourished there for over two hundred years, but it wasn't until the 1970's and the rise of the 'Super Tuscans' that they were widely used, when the fine wineries of the region began experimenting with Bordeaux style red wines to great effect.

Country: Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
