Truly classy, with a deep nose of earth, tar and pure berry fruit. This wine delivers both the sweetness and ripeness that it should along with some rugged, spicy edges. The finish is big and packed with licorice, spice and pepper. A fine wine. Hold until 2006.

Here’s a concentrated, ripe and surprisingly rich Rosso di Montalcino that mimics many of the fine characteristics of its big sister, Brunello. The wine is smooth and slightly sweet in the mouth with bursting notes of ripe cherry and succulent strawberry.

Here’s a gorgeous expression of Brunello di Montalcino with territory-driven notes of wet earth, forest floor, cherry and minty balsam-like overtones. The wine boats a thick, chewy texture with sweet berry flavors and loads of intensity and spicy persistency on the close.

Here’s an austere and sophisticated Brunello Riserva with beautifully integrated notes of spice, toast and cola that give backbone to brighter aromas of blackberry, cherry and plum. There’s a very attractive intensity and smoothness to this wine that suggest a natural pairing with meat on the grill.

This thick, masculine expression of Brunello offers loads of rich spice, vanilla, moist tobacco, smoked bacon, toasted coconut and black fruit. The oak element is present but also well integrated and gives extra dimension and personality overall.

Tenuta di Collosorbo delivers a compact Brunello with medium intensity and bright aromas of forest floor, cherry, cola and spice. The tannins are tight and slightly gritty but the wine performs very well overall.

A standout wine thanks to lush red apple and cinnamon, coffee, tobacco, cherry cola, spice and peach cobbler-like aromas. Tasty, long finish with firm tannins and a flavorful, fruity tail in an ageworthy wine. A Marc de Grazia selection, various U.S. importers.

A bit lighter in color than most of the ’99 riservas, but still a very nice wine offering easy drinkability. Toasty, foresty notes accent the nose, while the palate is sweet at the core with ripe plum and cherry. Excellent on its own; will certainly please. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various importers.

This wine takes a modern approach, recognized by the ripe blueberry, currant, vanilla and toasted nut aromas that characterize it. The wine is soft and silky in the mouth with a caressing quality and bright spice notes on the finish.
