We should probably have drunk this twenty years ago, but the wine is still having a respectable old age (hope I will be able to say the same)! We bought this after drinking an earlier vintage of the same wine in Florence our first trip to Italy, in 1978, when the grapes were still on the vine....

Smells like French Oakland-style BBQ, hickory smoked rhone with a sweet tangy finish but with a lot of dark fruit goodness still hiding behind a tight midpalate. 20 years old and still needs time. — 10 years ago
