THE ITALIAN GRAPE (99)
The Solaia 2010 must be my all-time favorite vintage to date. It is an absolute masterpiece, showcasing a perfect balance of ripeness, freshness, complexity, and power. This world-class wine by Antinori truly highlights why Solaia is made from the finest vineyards of Tenuta Tignanello. Every sip is a testament to Italian craftsmanship at its highest level, with layers of rich fruit, elegant structure, and an intensity that lingers beautifully. It is a wine that not only delivers but exceeds expectations—a true icon in the world of fine Tuscan wines.
ROBERT PARKER (98)
The 2004 Vigna Sere is the perfect conclusion to a vintage that will go down as one of Dal Forno’s most magical. Sweet, silky tannins support layers of super-refined, elegant fruit in this magical sweet red. Mocha, espresso, new leather, raspberry jam and spices emerge with time in the glass, but this is really a wine that shows off textural finesse more than anything else. I have tasted this wine many times since it was in barrel and later in bottle. It has never been anything less than spellbinding. It is one of the most magical sweet dessert wines I have ever tasted. At eight years of age the 2004 remains a an infant.
WINE ENTHUSIAST (97)
Already one of Italy's most iconic bottlings, this gorgeous 2010 is already a classic. Its complex and intense bouquet unfolds with ripe blackberries, violets, leather, thyme and balsamic herbs. The palate shows structure, poise and complexity, delivering rich black currants, black cherry, licorice, mint and menthol notes alongside assertive but polished tannins and vibrant energy. This wine will age and develop for decades. Drink 2018–2040.
