La Ricolma, Fattoria San Giusto a Rentennano 1999

Tasting Notes

A super Merlot. Impressive aromas of black olives, vanilla and raspberries. Full-bodied, with thick and velvety tannins and a long, sweet fruit aftertaste. Slightly too much wood, but still a beauty. Needs time to open. Best after 2005. 265 cases made.
