Critics Ratings

''The 1996 Solaia is tense and vibrant to the core. It will appeal to most readers who prefer wines with bright acidity and lively minerality.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 93/100 (Dec 2013)

Good dark ruby color, with berry, tobacco and a hint of mint to its character. It's medium-bodied, boasts a solid core of fruit and polished tannins. Long finish. Solid Solaia. Needs bottle age. Best after 2000.' - Wine Spectator, 90/100 (Nov 1999)
