Score 94/100 · Drink 2013-2019, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2007

The 2001 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Santa Caterina d'Oro is another terrific effort from Ciacci and proprietor Paolo Bianchini. This sumptuous, deeply-colored wine is gorgeously sweet and long, with endless layers of well-defined smoke, tar, earthiness, tobacco and black cherries. It reveals superb balance as well as ripe tannins that convey an image of elegance. As appealing as it is today, this Brunello will be even better in a few years' time. It is one of the vintage's unqualified successes.
