Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2015, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Apr 2005

The 1999 Brunello di Montalcino, with penetrating, spicy, and leathery aromas, is intense and concentrated on the palate, and is just beginning to round off. There are some tannins to resolve on the finish, but the depth of flavor should insure another ten years of satisfying drinking ahead. Andrea Cortonesi’s wines continue to convince and to please, and these are three well made efforts. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel. (516) 677-9300, Vin Divino, Chicago, IL; tel. (773) 334-6700, and Estate Wines, Ltd., San Rafael, CA; tel. (415) 492-9411

Score 91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2004

Ruby-red. Wild, Cote-Rotie-like aromas of raspberry, leather, bloody steak and magnolia. Lush, sweet, fat and seamless; rustic in a positive way. Notes of leather, tobacco, meat, coffee and earth. Finishes with broad, fine, sweet tannins. A distinctly sauvage, very dense wine that should offer early accessibility.

Mid-red. Slight lack of concentration, but correct, if slightly overblown, flavours. Very slightly febrile. (JR)
