Soldera Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 1999 is a full-bodied red wine produced from Sangiovese grapes in the Montalcino sub-region of Tuscany. Soldera was founded by Gianfranco and Graziella Soldera in 1970 and quickly established a reputation for producing fine Brunello highlighting the terroir of their Case Basse property`s Sangiovese vineyards. On the 1999 Brunello Riserva. "The 1999 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is an unquestionable success. It displays heady, complex aromas of smoke, tar and scorched earth, along with plenty of sweet dark fruit and tobacco flavours, in a potent, brooding style showing a rich inner tension between its fruit and the structure of the vintage. It should drink well to age twenty-five. Even though it carries an exorbitant price tag, the Riserva is well worth the extra dollars in vintage 1999. A great effort." Wine Advocate, 2006

A powerful deep wine, the 1999 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva brings this flight of 1990s Brunellos to a rousing finish. Dark cherry, lavender, licorice, spice and tobacco saturate the palate as this explosive, ample Riserva shows off its considerable pedigree. The muscular style of the year is very much in evidence. Superb.

Visionary Brunello with natural purity

The late Gianfranco Soldera was a visionary producer of some the purest and most ethereal expressions of Brunello di Montalcino. A former insurance broker, Soldera purchased his Case Basse estate in 1972. Until his death in 2019 at the age of 82, he was a zealous guardian of its unique terroir and the wines it produced.

With his botanist wife, Graziella, Soldera created Case Basse as an extraordinary ecosystem, including a two-hectare botanical park with more than 1,500 unique rose varieties, and a habitat for insect species that predate on vine parasites – thus allowing Soldera to forgo pesticides in his vineyards.

Beyond terroir, Soldera believed that the most important element for creating truly great wines was time. In practice, this meant slow fermentations (for a month or more), solely of free-run juice only, in large old slavonian oak vats without temperature control, followed by extended maturation in the same vessels – lasting up to six years for the flagship riserva bottlings.

With their trademark structure, hedonistic richness and beguiling aromatics, the wines of Soldera are unmistakeable. To have the opportunity to taste one at the peak of its maturity (such as the exquisite 1990), is a rare pleasure.
