| Vintage assessments for Montalcino from 1988 to 2007 |
| Year | VINES.ORG | | | | | | | | Details |
| 2000 | 88B | | | | | | | | Promises well for a good rating as the result of a long, dry growing season. |
| 1999 | 88B | | | | | | | | Warm, dry spring and summer, good harvest conditions, wines with classic structure. |
| 1998 | 89B | | | | | | | | Cool spring, hot, dry summer; good harvest. |
| 1997 | 96A | | | | | | | | Very warm summer, dry during September and October for a late harvest. As elsewhere in Tuscany, considered to be a great vintage. Drinks well early but will also be long lived as wines have good structure. |
| 1996 | 85B | | | | | | | | Hor and dry during early summer, but wet during August and September, so wines are not totally concentrated. |
| 1995 | 89B | | | | | | | | Very good conditions during the summer, spoiled by a wet August, but good harvest conditions. Very good wines should be long-lived. |
| 1994 | 85C | | | | | | | | Very hot summer starved the vines for water; good wines but not outstanding. |
| 1993 | 87C | | | | | | | | Decent vintage produced by an average growing season. |
| 1992 | 75D | | | | | | | | Dry, cool spring, hot summer, rain during the harvest produced light wines. |
| 1991 | 82D | | | | | | | | A relatively poor year producing wines for short term drinking. |
| 1990 | 89C | | | | | | | | Very good vintage (not quite as good as in Chianti) with the best wines now coming up to their peak. |
| 1989 | 78D | | | | | | | | Cool, rainy conditions through spring and early summer followed by a poor harvest. |
| 1988 | 90C | | | | | | | | A very good year with adequate rain and warm weather through the harvest. Very good wines that are drinking well. |
