""It's hard to think of a more beautiful vineyard in Tuscany than Montosoli...Here is where the world's greatest Sangiovese is produced, time and time again...According to Claudio Basla, part-owner and manager of the estate, the brilliance of Altesino's Montosoli is the wine's "perfect balance between muscular power and elegance, due to the unique soil, microclimate, [exposure] to the sun and altitude of the vineyard"...Montosoli always shows incredible power, yet maintains a superb backbone of tannins and acidity." â Wine Spectator
--"This single-vineyard Brunello is built like a Ferrari - sexy and sleek. It needs at least four or five years of bottle age to come into its own..." â Wine Spectator "

"96 points, Wine Spectator
WS Top 100 2000, Rank: 13 & Cellar Selection - Monster Brunello. Very dark in color, withsuperripe aromas of black licorice, dried plum,mint and meat. Full-bodied, with masses of velvetytannins and a long, long finish. Best version ofthis Tuscan red since the legendary 1990Montosoli. Give it time. Best after 2004. 5,000 cases made. âJS
