What reviewers say
“Questo è un vino "importante" come l'azienda che lo produce, perché i vigneti occupano una parte della collina nel versante sud di Montalcino. Il colore è un bel rosso scuro, molto intenso con qualche sprazzo di rosso rubino.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
The color is intense ruby red, the nose reveals fresh and fruity notes reminiscent the wild violet, berry, cherry and plum, perfectly integrated into a full and round structure. Ready to drink, it's nice and soft, round and persistent.

2,065 Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 2,131 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. 946 other reds from Italy form the cohort it is ranked inside.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Banfi Chianti Superiore lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Red · Italy (947 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 2,065.
