   Great image on this one. Spot on. The 97 is honeyed with a core of history and magic, like amber.

   Thanks, it is great to hear positive feedback. Whenever we get the chance to taste amazing wine, there is a long more responsibility in choosing an image that really nails the wine down. When I reviewed Sassicaia I spent hours trying to find the right image and I still feel like I didn’t get it right. But every once in a while I’ll stumble on something by accident that I’m not looking for that perfectly sums up the wine. The elegance and the viscosity, the focus and depth just shine through. I can’t stress how much we appreciate feedback, positive and negative. Thanks Corkdork.
