Wine Advocate
Review Date: 10/2001Chocolate, coffee, smoke, licorice, and tobacco characteristics are found in the complex, deep purple-colored 1998 Sori Tildin. Surprisingly seductive for such a young wine, it exhibits abundant aromatic fireworks, fabulous fruit concentration, a layered opulence, more intensity, glycerin, and depth than the Costa Russi, and a spectacularly long finish. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2025. (RP)

(from a blend of 11- and 36-year-old vines) Full ruby-red. Restrained but pure aromas of currant, plum, menthol and roasted meat. Supple, rich and seamless; less sweet and accessible today than the Costa Russi but already shows superb generosity of texture. Finishes with sweet, building tannins and excellent length. This may well shut down in bottle. 93+ (ST)

Wine Spectator
Wonderfully perfumed, with fresh raspberry, mineral and hints of tar. Full-bodied, with a racy tannin structure and a licorice, tar and berry aftertaste. Still very tight. But drinkable too. (Web Only—2008)
