Crimson. Aromatic. Quite fine, but certainly not dense. Thick and easy. Not a humdinger, despite the reputation. Rustic tannins. Dry and dusty. (JR)

Readers who love leather aromas and flavors will adore the 1997 Brunello di Montalcino as it smells like a new horse saddle. There are also scents of cherries, tobacco, and herbs. Full-bodied, with an opaque garnet color, high extraction, and severe tannin, it has all the necessary components for a long life. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2023.

Very dark garnet. Ethereal nose of wildflowers, especially lavender. Vibrant, sharply focused flavors of anise, chocolate, coffee and white pepper. Superbly concentrated, with a velvety mouth feel and firm, ripe tannins. A long, mineral-laden finish brings this poised and multidimensional wine to a deeply satisfying close.
