15^½/20

Tuscany, ItalySlightly riper than the regular version with more roasted sausage and coffee prune notes. Richer intensity but with big dry tannins and a resiny, bitter almond, cherry fruit flavoured finish. A bit old-fashioned and thus will need time to settle the dry tannins. Otherwise enjoy now with a big T-bone steak. Somewhat disappointing for a 1999.Tasted: 25 April 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
