Score 95/100 · Drink 2004-2024, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Apr 2004

The 1999 Sassoforte is one of the finest Cabernets made in Tuscany in the 1990’s. Pure and focused cassis fruit, graphite, licorice, and tar are matched by a driving power and intensity, a deep-pile texture, and exceptional balance, poise, and breed - the classic iron fist in a velvet glove, and a wine which will surely last another two decades.
