90 Points - "The 2010 Valtellina Superiore Inferno Fiamme Antiche has an immediacy to it that I find utterly irresistible. Energetic and juicy, with plenty of Valtellina drive, the 2010 hits all the right notes. Chalk, white pepper, dried cherry, anise and wild herbs all flesh out in this super-expressive, layered Inferno. This is another of the more forward wines in the range, and while it has the acidity to keep for years, I see less potential for improvement in bottle than in some of the other wines. The 2010 is 100% Chiavennasca (Nebbiolo) that spent 12 days on the skins in oak vats, followed by 2 years in a combination of cask and cement." - Vinous Media (Apr 2016)
