Tasting note: The single vineyard 1997 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna La Casa exhibits a medium garnet color as well as a sweet perfume of cherries, loamy soil scents, herbs, and a hint of tobacco. Lean, with high acidity as well as tannin, and a spicy, medium-bodied, shallow finish, it should be drunk between 2005-2012. (86pts. Robert Parker)
