Rated 97 points by Wine Spectator!

Wine Spectator - Score: 97, Issue: Web Only - 2007

"Very rich and plummy, with lots of mineral and floral undertones. Full, fresh and very powerful, with big, yet silky tannins and a long aftertaste of cherry and spices. Very, very long. Still needs time. --1997 Italian blind retrospective. Best after 2009. 12,000 cases made."

"Amazing Brunello. Fantastic aromas of blackberries, flowers and minerals. Captivating. Full-bodied, with incredible layers of ripe fruit and silky tannins. The finish lasts for minutes. Racy and firm now. Give it some bottle age. Best from 2004 through 2014. 12,000 cases made."
