Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
In 1353, Pietro Alighieri, son of Florentine poet Dante (of Inferno fame), purchased the lands that are still at the heart of this property. For 20 generations, the family have tended vineyards on this land. Intense Valpol with aromas of plum, cocoa, fig, freshly turned earth and spice. This is a complex wine for the style. Impeccably balanced wine right through to the long finish. Enjoy with game meats or roast leg of lamb. Source: Vintages Wine Panel
