Solid wine, 15 years young from the 1999 vintage. Cabernet from Piedmonte region of Italy. Tastes like a Bordeaux, but with more acidity and mineral character you see in Nebbiolo from these parts of Italy. Plenty of life left. 5-7 years easy or more. Fine, but firm tannins frame the finish of dried currants and cherry with some grilled herbs — 9 years ago
2011 vintage. Great pairing with pizza. 90+ — 9 years ago
Great wine with Joanne & John! — 11 years ago
Ceccherini Cristiano
Had it August 2008.
Cherries preserved in alcohol, rose, face powder, lipstick, aromatic herbs, balsamic, good tannin. Soft and long. Not unforgettable though — 8 years ago
