1999 Riserva : Nose piercing aromas of ripe red fruit, tar, roses, and mint. Extremely firm with major league grip, classic red fruit and iron fist on the finish..

Still has nice balance of acidity & tannins, dried cherry & plums, lavender, cedar & touch of cinnamon.

Very mature nose, but young palate. Could have been topped up. In any event could use a few yrs to fully bloom. Very nice now.
