Librandi - Red Wine with Breakfast	Duca San Felice Cirò Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva DOC	2015		Mar-2020
Review “From limestone and clay soils in the toe of Italy’s boot, also known at Calabria, Librandi Duca San Felice Ciro Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva DOC 2015 is full-bodied and powerful, with big tannin and acidity. By fermenting and aging in stainless steel for 3 years, followed by a bit of bottle aging before releasing the wine to the marketplace, the wine softens to create a well-rounded and balanced palate, with dried cherry, pomegranate, and wet stone.”
Librandi - Vinous	Gravello Val di Neto Rosso IGT	2016	90	Feb-2020
Review “Saturated ruby. Clean, fresh and refined on the nose and in the mouth, with none of the overtly green notes that characterized so many Gravellos of the past. This big fine red wine is the best young Gravello I remember tasting in quite some time, offering long, silky, and well balanced aromas and flavors of black fruit and graphite. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Gaglioppo.”
Librandi - Vinous	Magno Megonio Val di Neto Rosso IGT	2015	92	Feb-2020
Review “Moderately saturated ruby-red. Aromas and flavors of smoke, flint, licorice and black fruit. Deep, juicy and well balanced, this finishes soft bright and long. Made with Magliocco Dolce.”
Librandi - Vinous	Efeso Mantonico Val di Neto IGT	2018	92	Feb-2020
Review “Deep straw yellow. Honey, apricot, baked apples and poached pear aromas. Big broad and rich, but not at all over the top, with flavors similar to the aromas. Lovely wine. 100% Mantonico.”
Librandi - Vinous	Cirò Rosato DOC	2018	88	Feb-2020
Review “Limpid pink. Orange zest, herbs and strawberry on the nose, plus a floral quality with aeration. A juicy, light-bodied Rosato that packs very good punch, offering gentle sweet citrus and melon flavors. Very fresh on the medium-long finish. Gaglioppo.”
Librandi - Vinous	Critone Val di Neto IGT - 2018	2018	90	Feb-2020
Review “Bright golden-tinged straw color. Passion fruit, gooseberry, sage, banana and pear on the nose and in the mouth. Dense and luscious, finishing long with plenty of freshness and mounting lemon peel bitterness. Very lively.”
Librandi - Vinous	Duca San Felice Cirò Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva DOC	2015	92	Feb-2020
Review “Good full ruby-red. Crystallized red berries, licorice, and flint on the musky, refined nose. Juicy, deep and chewy, with bright red fruit and floral flavors. Still rather backward, this closes with firm but notable tannins and vibrant, harmonious acidity. One of the best Sanfelice Rossos in recent memory. Gaglioppo.”

Librandi - Jamessuckling.com	Magno Megonio Val di Neto Rosso IGT	2016	90	Nov-2019
Review “Pretty brambleberries and bracken here, as well as heather. Juicy and fruity, but firm and savory. Quite coarse on the finish, but the soft fruit provides a welcome canvas for the dark flavors to take hold.”
Librandi - Jamessuckling.com	Duca San Felice Cirò Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva DOC	2016	90	Nov-2019
Review “Dried leaves, sesame seeds, glazed redcurrants and vine leaves here. Medium to full body, warm and hearty tannins and a fruit-driven finish.”
