Tasting Notes:

"94 out of 100...Incredibly fresh aromas here with spiced red cherries and boysenberries, as well as wood and new leather. The palate has a deliciously succulent core of fresh red-fruit flavor and tannins that hold the finish in great shape. Drink over the next six years." - James Suckling (January 2019)

"94 out of 100...The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Ripe al Convento reveals attractive, floral red fruits in a layered, elegant style backed up with lovely density and richness. Mint, flowers and red berries linger on the delicate, silky finish. This mid-weight, refined Brunello is one of the most complete and beautiful wines I have ever tasted from Castelgiocondo. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024." - Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate (April 2010)
