1999 vintage. Tasted alongside the 1998 and on the label we noticed this is almost perfectly split percentages between merlot, sangiovese and cab franc. More red fruits and vegetal notes on the nose, but a smoother and silkier mouthfeel on the palate. Slightly better than the 1998, and paired better with the steaks we had.
