WINESPECTATOR (reviewed twice - once in 2005 and once in 2009) the notes are as following:
" Fantastic aromas of crushed blackberry, blueberry, orange peel and flowers. Full-bodied, with big, chewy tannins and massive fruit. This has amazing concentration. Really superb.—'99 Brunello blind retrospective."
- review of 2009
Very structured. Superattractive aromas of plum, blueberry and pressed flowers follow through to a full-bodied palate, with firm, silky tannins and a long, caressing finish. Layers and layers of ripe fruit, with everything in beautiful proportions. Almost a replay of the 1997, which scored 98 points. Best after 2006.
- as of 2005
Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"Tight as nails on the nose before it explodes on the palate in a cacophony of cherry, cassis, black plum, tobacco and chocolate. It’s like the best cigar and a great red wine rolled into one. Yes, the tannins are hammering and yes, the acidity is forward. But that only means this brilliant Brunello should age for 15 years without batting an eyelash."
- review of 2005
