Score 90/100 · Drink 1996-2011, Robert Parker, Apr 1996

This is the first wine (an outstanding one at that) I have tasted from this producer. It exhibits a forward, sweet, herb, toast, smoky, and ripe cherry-scented nose, medium to full-bodied, supple, fat flavors with good glycerin, and a highly-extracted personality. Pure and well-balanced, with gorgeous layers of sweet, jammy fruit and noticeable yet ripe tannin, this is about as sumptuous as Brunello di Montalcino gets. Approachable now, it should continue to evolve and drink well for 10-15 years. Importer: Empson USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900
