'A blend of equal parts Merlot from Panzano and Sangiovese from Castellina, the Gagliole 2017 Valletta is a cheerful wine with a plump and dark core of cherry and blackberry. Sometimes understated simplicity can make the biggest statement, and that's the main takeaway here. This is a crisp and linear red that puts most of the emphasis on freshness and purity. Honestly, this is all you need next to a simple spaghetti with basil and fresh tomato sauce. 92 Points' - Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate

An exceptional Toscana Rosso with some extra cellaring, drinking really well and the perfect pairing for lamb. - Aljoscha Wright, OWC
