The Wine Advocate Vasco Sassetti’s 2001 Brunello di Montalcino is a big, brawny wine. A dark ruby, it opens with a powerful nose redolent of tar, smoke and earthiness. On the palate it reveals a tightly-wound core of backward dark fruit on a structured frame, with excellent length and fine overall balance in a slightly rustic and austere, yet pleasing, style. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2019. Score: 90. —Antonio Galloni, December 2006.
