"Soldera’s 2000 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva offers layers of sublime perfumed ripe fruit that blossom on the palate with great concentration, length, finesse and purity of expression. Deceptively medium-bodied, today it comes across as elegant and somewhat restrained but the structure is there and in time it is likely to put on weight and mature into a darker set of flavors. Soldera’s 2000 Brunello Riserva is a remarkable achievement for the vintage and will drink well for several decades."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
A powerful, age-worthy Sangiovese from the warm hills of Montalcino, requiring extended aging and prized for depth and longevity.
