Beautifully mature, with a youthful hue and inner core. Goudron, tobacco, blood orange and dried red berries come out. Vital and mellow on the palate with sweetish-meaty aromas arising. I like the 1999 vintage so much to drink today and this Nebbiolo is another reason why.

Giuseppe Rinaldi (Wine Market Bistro - Baltimore): At first blush one might thing this was barolo. Nice quintessential Piedmonte nose of strawberry, tar, roses and balsamico. Finish was where it was given away to not be barolo. Gained some weight with air in the glass.
