Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2003-2012, Jancis Robinson MW, May 2003

Mid-crimson. Sweet, rather simple, nose. Easy to like. Round and full. Quite open at first, though tannins insist towards the end. Honest, if not sophisticated. Slight lack of focus. (JR)

Score 87/100 · Drink 2002-2014, Robert Parker, Dec 2002

The dark garnet-colored 1997 Brunello di Montalcino's sweet tobacco, red currant, cherry, and herb aromas are followed by an excellent attack, and a medium-bodied, dry, angular finish. Although very good, it is hardly an exceptional effort from this highly praised vintage. Anticipated maturity: now-2014. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900
