Ratings & Reviews
Wine Spectator Magazine:"A plummy, rich red, featuring jam, light cedar and dried flowers on the nose and palate. Full and juicy. Best after 2010. 3,665 cases made." –JS (Web 2010)
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:"The 2007 Il Volano from Il Molino di Grace is a soft, juicy red well-suited to casual drinking over the next year or two. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012." - Antonio Galloni (8/2010)
Wine Enthusiast Magazine (2006 vintage):
"Here’s a creamy, dense 75-25 blend of Sangiovese and Merlot with aromas of chocolate fudge, coffee and black fruit. The wine has good structure and well-balanced acidity..." - M.L. (11/1/2009)
