Tosco's word
The two Carmignano Riserva DOCG wines from Artimino earn the same rating (7.3) and share blend, aging and the absence of any award, but the price gap is clear: €53 for the large 1.5 L format of version A (about €26.68 per 75 cl), versus €32 for bottle B alone. So you choose the magnum format if you're hosting more than six guests or want a grand gesture at the table, and the classic bottle if you're dining alone or as a couple, for a gentler price. Version A comes with more detailed vinification notes and pairings (serving temperature 18–20 °C), while B is more complete about the producer; to avoid a wrong pick, go for the large format for a celebration, the single bottle for tasting.
Tosco only cites facts from this head-to-head: ratings, criteria, prices, amenities. Text calculated once, checked by the code.
