My last bottle of this wine. Drank it with marinated skirt steak. Still a very good bottle but not as concentrated or fruit driven as it once was. 90 points.

Good red, just a slight brick rim. Slightly funky nose, turns to cherry and green pepper; good balance and long finish. Still some tannins remain. Good solid wine but lacked the excitement I remember in the 1990 d’Altesi. More of a food wine than tasting wine.

This bottle was dried out. No fruit left, only secondary notes of leather, herbs and earth.

Not as much nose as there was alcohol.

Medium-bodied tuscan with decent flavors of burnt sour cherry, tobacco leaf, currant. Finishes clean, but short. Probably going OTH. Decanted 2 hrs. Drink
