I'vd had The Mascot 2018 a number of occasions. The wine is simply "Fantastic." It is delicate yet bold with red fruit characteristics. Yet you find this simplicity about it, delicate and soft to the palate.

Fontodi 2014 Flaccianello della Pieve Toscana IGT Italy
96 Points Vinous • 95 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Fontodi 2014 Flaccianello della Pieve is an elegant, highly acclaimed Super Tuscan crafted from 100% Sangiovese at the renowned Fontodi estate in Panzano in Chianti, Tuscany. Produced in the celebrated Conca d'Oro amphitheater, this exceptional wine showcases the finesse, freshness, and complexity of a challenging but rewarding vintage.
The 2014 vintage reveals expressive aromas of black cherry, wild berries, plum, rose hip, tobacco, licorice, chocolate, and exotic spice. On the palate, layers of ripe red and dark fruit unfold with a creamy texture, refined tannins, and vibrant acidity. More delicate and approachable than warmer vintages, this Flaccianello offers remarkable balance, graceful structure, and a long, elegant finish.
Despite difficult growing conditions, Fontodi produced an outstanding wine, with yields approximately 30% below average. Aged in French oak, the 2014 Flaccianello combines classic Sangiovese character with exceptional precision and finesse, making it a compelling addition to any collection of fine Italian wines.
