at 75% sangioveto (a particular sangiovese clone) and 25% cabernet sauvignon, this beauty really pops both in the nose and in the mouth. it's quite international in style, meaning the cabernet softens the sangiovese, yielding a sweet and ripe product that has both character and proper balance. despite 18 months in oak, the ripe fruit of the '99 vintage remains front and center.
