"Sinewy and muscular, this red delivers a core of cherry and plum flavors, hinting at mint and licorice. Stiff tannins corral everything on the moderately long finish. Best from 2014 through 2026. 3,500 cases made. —Bruce Sanderson"

"Rose petals and plums on the nose. Full body, with round and chewy tannins and a ripe finish. Tannic, yet polished texture. Give it two to three years of bottle age. This wine is clearly better in 2007 than 2006. - James Suckling"
"Thick and dark, with generous fruit, spice, leather and tobacco. This is a wine that does not hold back from an aromatic point of view. Mouthfeel is tight, firm and ends with polished tannins. M.L."
"Tradizione stands out in a crowd of Brunellos thanks to that extra layer of intensity and richness it offers in both the nose and mouth. Ripe fruit, leather, prune and tobacco build momentum on the finish. — M.L."
