1999 vintage.Amazing Sangiovese made by legendary Heidi Barett. If I read well between the lines in Kelly A White's fantastic book this should be the last Sangiovese vintage produced by La Sirena before their Sangiovese source disappeared. This really smells like a top-notch Tuscan wine and it keeps on growing in the glass suggesting it is not at all at the end of its evolution. Impressive

Bad cork, but that doesn't excuse the acid. Gross.
