Score 88/100 · Drink 2020-2024, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Jan 2020
The entry-level 2018 Sant'Antimo Ateo by Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona is a handy wine for informal occasions. The blend is Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The bouquet offers a fresh level of red and purple fruits with some of the sour and raw characteristics you could expect of this cool corner in Tuscany. That fruity bitterness is especially evident on the wine's lean to medium-weight frame. You taste wild Tuscany in this wine. Some 27,000 bottles were released in September 2019.
