94 Antonio Galloni - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino has developed far beyond my initial expectations. Initially compact and folded in on itself, the wine literally blossoms into a jewel right before my eyes. Layers of floral red fruit spin effortlessly from this graceful, mid-weight Brunello, filling out quite nicely. This remains a slightly clenched wine, but one with tremendous promise. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025."
