Had side-by-side with the 2000 which were purchase together and both the last of their case. The '99 has held up very well. I could see another couple years out of it. Very impressive.

A nice Chianti Classico riserva. Still some good dark fruit in this. A touch of licorice with balanced acidity. Medium to full bodied. I would buy this again.

1999 Brunello Blind Tasting; 5/8/2011-5/9/2011 (Tom's House, Palo Alto): A funky nose with some mushroom, vegetal components. Lovely wine with balanced ripe palate, perhaps tiring a little bit but drinking well now. My #2/8 of the night.

Intensiv röd färg, härliga chianti toner, elegant smak och taniner, mkt balanserad och lång eftersmak
