  this wine has still a serious core of fruit to it, and thus i'd say it is drinking rather young considering its more than 25yrs old. though all in all it was another less than memorable Valdicava experience for me.

  Corked! Hoping it would blow off and just got worse.

  Very rich, extracted for Brunello, caramel, brown sauce, good but a bit over the top. Heritage Auction Blind Tasting at Jean-Georges Vegas after party
