These bottles come to us from a very small collection of top-caliber wine. The collector is a lover of fine wine and spirits and it was a shift in drinking preferences that brought them to IronGate. They were cellared to perfection in an in-home cooling system and personally inspected by our President, Warren Porter.
1999 Marchesi Antinori Solaia Toscana has following scores - Vinous 96 , Decanter 95. 1999 Marchesi Antinori Solaia Toscana has the score of 94 from Robert Parker and the tasting note -The first two bottles I tasted of the 1999 Solaia were corked, but the third was brilliant. Its black/purple color is followed by a sumptuous bouquet of licorice, blackberries, mint, and cassis, all presented in a concentrated, medium to full-bodied, dense yet elegant style. Although still young, it is undoubtedly the qualitative equivalent of a Bordeaux first or second growth.
1999 Sassicaia Bolgheri has following scores - Jeannie Cho Lee (formerly Asian Palate) 94, Decanter 94. 1999 Sassicaia Bolgheri has the score of 92 from Wine Spectator and the tasting note -Complex aromas of minerals, berries, tobacco and shells. Full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a succulent, refined aftertaste. A pretty Sass. Best after 2004. 13,000 cases made, 1,800 cases imported.
