Always amazed how they could make such a great wine in a difficult vintage.

Such a great wine maybe the wine of the vintage next to the 02 Monfortino. Elegant & silky texture with nice balance & length showing red fruits, leather, dried herbs, spice & tobacco.

Amazing vintage for Soldera that seems to always make great wines even in off years. (93 is stunning as well) Always an experience!

The 2002 wins by a nod. Both are incredible. The ‘99 has more smoke and pure power while the ‘02 has more elegance, grace, and balance.

Rich, dense & floral that needed an hour in the decanter to open showing sweet red cherry, berry fruits with dried herbs, rose petal & licorice spices.
