Feudi di San Gregorio Taurasi Riserva Piano di Montevergine 1999
Red Wine
from Southern Italy, Italy
winemaker's notes:
"The 1999 Taurasi Riserva Piano di Montevergine cranks up the intensity level by many notches with its potent, penetrating raspberry and blackberry nose, mineral and tarry, and a packed, weighty, super-solid palate whose tannins are just beginning to unwind and bring out the underlying velvet of their texture. The wine is beginning to be approachable, but I would suggest drinking it between 2006 and 2020."

"This takes no prisoners..."
-Wine Spectator
100% Old Vine Aglianico di Taurasi.
Intense bouquet of wild fruits underscored by vanilla and spice notes. Full-bodied and balanced, with supple tannins and dark fruit flavors. Well-matched with red meat entrées, fish steaks and hearty casseroles.
