Score 17/20 · Drink 2005-2012, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2005
Very dark crimson. Sweet and evolved nose. Well balanced whole already – fine sandy tannins underneath but perfectly drinkable already too. Quite lively and crunchy fruit. Quite marked acidity. (JR)

Score 91/100 · Drink 2004-2014, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Apr 2004
The 2001 Chianti Classico Grosso Sanese, not unexpectedly, is better than the La Pieve, with its potent, warm aromas, dense and sustained palate, and its rich, nuanced extraction which should guarantee at least a decade of life ahead.
