D1h. Garnet red, yellow tinged, 4.5. Peculiar rubber like bouquet, reduce over the first 15min and more classic Vino Nobile character emerge. Racy palate, still some tannin. Drink now. Seems to be on the decline.

I am amazed at how consistent Valdipiatta is across vintages. The 01 has been the best, but 99, 04 and 06 follow very closely. Classic Italian Sangiovese, nice earthy fruity bouquet and a touch of tobacco. Mid palate finds good fruit with leather and spiciness. Long complex finish heavy on tar and chocolate. )7 is out now and will try soon, can't wait for the 10 to show up it should be fabulous, maybe a new favorite

Drank one bottle and returned the other 5 I purchased. This wine was too thin for me.

Php. This bottle is rather boring lacking fruit and nothing to replace it. Correct but dull. Drink now. Disappointing. Odd bottle?
