Score 88/100 · Drink 2006-2014, Robert Parker, Dec 2002

The deep ruby/purple-colored 1997 Brunello di Montalcino Poggio Alle Mura displays an international bouquet of red and black fruits, wood, licorice, and earth. There is excellent depth and ripeness, but this monolithic Brunello lacks heart and soul. The long finish reveals moderate tannin. Let's see what develops. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2014. Importer: Banfi Vintners, Old Brookville, NY; tel. (516)626-9200
