Score 94/100 · Drink 2013-2020, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2012
The 1980 Brunello di Montalcino is in fabulous shape. Stylistically it is somewhere between the 1990 and 1991 in terms of its richness. There is plenty of fruit, while the aromatics still haven't reached their full apogee of development. This is a decidedly old-style Brunello with some roughness around the edges. At the same time, it is impossible to ignore how well this wine – from a totally forgotten vintage – has aged.
