Score 94/100 · Drink 2024-2031, Eric Guido, Vinous, Apr 2023
The 2021 Sauvignon Dark Label is wickedly spicy, boasting a complex blend of ground ginger, lemon zest, incense and sage. Silky in feel yet almost salty in nature, it's perfumed and zesty within, with citrus-kissed orchard fruits and a pepper note toward the close. The 2021 finishes savory and long with a vivid note of Granny Smith apple that lingers on and on. The Sauvignon benefitted greatly from the extended harvest in 2021, spending two weeks longer on the vine than usual. Wow.

About the producer

Borgo del Tiglio
Borgo del Tiglio is one of Italy's great hidden gems. A devastating landslide in November 2025 destroyed the estate's cellars, leaving the future of the historic Ronco della Chiesa vineyard uncertain.
