Score 87/100 · Drink 2013-2016, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug 2011
The 2008 Il Borgo comes across as quite delicate in this vintage. The sweet, open bouquet is inviting, but there isn't quite enough mid-palate depth to match. This feminine, somewhat fleeting Il Borgo is best enjoyed sooner rather than later. Il Borgo is 70% Sangiovese and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon.
