  This is the 3rd single vineyard Produttori from the '99 vintage that I've had this month, and all of the wines have been decent. The red fruit is more prominent on the palate here, with the nose showing both red & black fruit. Really spreads out on the palate. Very similar to the Ovello I had last week.

  1999 was a terrific vintage all around, and a great one for Produttori's riservas. These still need a ton of time, but when they show up, they show up large.

  DnP. Medium light garnet red, yellow rim, 4.5. Clean vinous bouquet with some spicy stuff behind, later violets appear but still somewhat unfolded for now. Harmonious palate, medium tannin, acidity and body, elegant, violets in the finish. Wait five years at least. Seems to have it all but needs more time to evolve.

  Lots of beef bouillion, black licorice, and black pepper from the nose through to the finish. Surprisingly rich, delicious with duck lasagna or wild boar with truffles. Probably 5-8 years of great drinking for well stored bottles.

  Luftet i flaske 3 timer. Drikker flott i øyeblikket. Nydelig kirsebærfrukt. Tanniner fortsatt tilstede. Tåler noen år til i kjelleren (5-10)?
