2001 Enrico Santini Montepergoli Bolgheri Rosso RP--93

Robert Parker: 93 Points
Wine Advocate # 152 Apr 2004 Daniel Thomases 93 Drink: 2005 - 2020 $45-$70 (55) The 2001 Bolgheri Rosso Montepergoli, just as in the 2000 vintage, is one of the best wines of the entire appellation. Very deep and brilliant in color, its amply-spiced nose and powerfully expansive aromas of smoky creme de cassis and plums is followed by rich, layered flavors of perfectly ripe berry fruit, tar, river gravel, and cedar, and is lush, dense, and very long. The appearance of this excellent new producer in Bolgheri last year was of the most pleasant surprises of the entire Tuscan coast, and this year�s wines are even better. Drink: 2005-2020.
