Wine Advocate on JURIJ FIORE & FIGLIA
|
|
The Jurij Fiore & Figlia portfolio includes various expressions of Sangiovese with quirky names like "holy cow" and "I don't know." His wines are excellent, and I encourage you to seek them out, with a warning, however, that his production is very small.

Decanter, February 2024
The inaugural release, Altolà is the only one of Jurij Fiore’s Chianti Classico wines not from the Lamole township. Instead, the vineyard is found across the Greve Valley, on Montefioralle’s upper clay slopes at 450 metres. Toasty, macerated red cherry is complemented by hints of clove. The sweet spice-infused palate is round, full and lush. Yet underneath a sumptuousness of fruit, this is mineral edged, with zippy acidity, while pliant tannins grip on the finish. This textural and flavourful red should show some of its more subtle nuances with time.

Wine Advocate, September 2023
This wine's name means "I don't know" in English. Made with Sangiovese, the Jurij Fiore & Figlia 2021 Chianti Classico Lamole Nonlosò offers a crisp and linear expression with wild berry, blue flower, earth and crushed stone. The wine ages in oak for 18 months, but you'd hardly know it given the bright primary intensity and punchy clarity of the fruit at hand. The Nonlosò has cooling acidity, menthol notes and silky tannins. This is a tiny production of 558 bottles.

Vinous, June 2023
Occhioroso Difori is a intriguing wine. Just bottled, the 2021 is heavily reduced, and yet behind that lies a serious core of fruit laced with savory and floral notes. Exotic and wild but certainly intriguing.

Vinous, August 2023
The 2022 Lassù a Lamole offers lemon oil, mint, jasmine and crushed rocks. A wild, eccentric white, the Lassù a Lamole is certainly compelling.

Decanter, February 2024
Hailing from a vineyard at 580 metres above sea level, Sonocosì refines for just a few months in concrete to achieve a fresh expression of Sangiovese, the intention being to hold a mirror up to the Lamole district. The nose burst with the freshest of raspberries backed up by rose, lilac and juniper. Crunchy pomegranate and blood orange are elevated by frisky acidity, and the tannins are light with a fine, powdery texture, cleansing the palate while leaving behind persistent nuances of alpine herbs and citrus zest. A thrilling expression of unwooded Sangiovese.
