Solid wine, 15 years young from the 1999 vintage. Cabernet from Piedmonte region of Italy. Tastes like a Bordeaux, but with more acidity and mineral character you see in Nebbiolo from these parts of Italy. Plenty of life left. 5-7 years easy or more. Fine, but firm tannins frame the finish of dried currants and cherry with some grilled herbs
