2020 Nittardi ‘Nectar Dei’ DOC Maremma Super Tuscan

Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Petit Verdot. Deep red with hues of purple, aromas of ripe black fruit, vanilla, tobacco and hints of spices as pink pepper; concentrated and complex flavors on the palate with a full and persistent finish. Excellently suited to all variations of red meat and game.

~97 Luca Maroni, Yearbook of " The Best Italian Wines" Luca Maroni. 

Deep and complex on the nose with spiced plums and ripe blackberries as well as hints of sweet licorice, aged tangerine peel, chocolate and dark earth. Some tarry undertones, too. Full and opulent with very fine, silky tannins that have a firm grip over the palate, framing the intense and succulent fruit. Lingering finish. From organically grown grapes. Better after 2025. ~94 James Suckling. 

The 2020 Nectar Dei is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot and Syrah from vineyards in Maremma. A plush, succulent wine, the 2020 races across the palate with copious dark fruit, mocha, leather, licorice, spice and espresso. Nectar Dei is not especially subtle, but I am not sure that matters. ~94 Points, Antonio Galloni - Vinous Media

Powerful and decidedly dark in spirit, this Super Tuscan has the makings of a champion. Notes of black plums, blackberries, black cherries, cloves and nutmeg describe the main sensory profile. Juniper berries and dark chocolate the secondary one. Full body, perfectly ripe tannins and a warm, spicy finish of a sunny, Mediterranean nature. Drink now. ~94 WinesCritic.com

Bright crimson in colour with a bright rim. On the nose, aromas of blackberry, plum, leather, and sweet tobacco. The palate is punchy and persistent, with great structure and pronounced, still young tannins, and a somewhat bitter finish.~93 Falstaff
