2004 Montevertine Toscana IGT

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Saturday, May 11, 2024 - Extraordinary.
For the nose alone, this would rate ***, but it delivered in all respects everything anyone could ask from a bottle of wine. The kaleidoscopic elemental flavors, as of earth, wind, and fire; the layers revealing themselves - the fruit still vibrant, the tannins so well integrated, the acidity crisp and finely tuned - and as the evening progressed, so did the flavors, intensifying yet always restrained - truly an iron fist in a silk glove. And, at the last drop, bittersweet... the last of my bottles, but a most memorable sequence of experiences.

Rated HC (on a scale of -1 to +3), beyond category (hors catégorie).
