Note di degustazione
The 1998 Sorì San Lorenzo is one of the most pleasant surprises in this tasting. Fresher than the 1997 - even if not as voluptuous - the 1998 captures the best qualities of the year. Smoke, tobacco, menthol, plums and black cherries are all laced together in a silky, perfumed wine that is stunning today. This is a terrific showing from the 1998.

The multi-faceted 1998 Sori San Lorenzo offers up notes of lead pencil, smoke, tobacco, tar, rose petals, black fruits, and espresso. Already incredibly expressive, soft, sexy, and voluptuous, jammy fruits infused with toasty oak cascade over the palate. This easily understood, seamless, pure, classic 1998 should drink well for 20-25 years. Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847) 604-89000

Full ruby. Bright aromas of dark berries, black cherry, pungent spices, minerals, violet and mint, plus a flinty, smoky aspect; a bit less expressive today than the Sori Tildin. Impeccably balanced, highly concentrated flavors of cassis and black raspberry. Firm acids and rich, dusty tannins give the wine terrific structure. Boasts fruit of steel, though the wine great underlying sweetness is currently restrained. Slow-building finish goes on and on. Comparing this wine with the Sori Tildin over the next 15 years will be a special treat for millionaire collectors.
