Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2002
The 1997 Brunello di Montalcino (1,200 cases) is a dense, structured, full-bodied, intense effort revealing notes of licorice, smoke, leather, spice, and earth. With plenty of ripeness, fruit, glycerin, and concentration as well as high tannin, it will be at its finest between 2007-2017. Importer: Dominic Nocerino, Vinifera Imports, Ronkonkoma, NY; tel.

Wine Spectator, June 2002
Wonderful aromas of roses, ripe fruit and hints of spices. Full-bodied, with beautiful, silky tannins and a finish of flowers and fruit that lasts for minutes. Best after 2003. 1,500 cases made. –JS
