Tasting Notes

WS95
Dark ruby. Beautiful aromas of crushed blackberry, plum, mineral and spices. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and lots of berry, cut wood and dark chocolate. Very long. Youthful. Still needs time.--1997 Italian blind retrospective. Best after 2008.
WA95
The 1997 Cepparello is pure seduction. Today the wine isn’t as opulent as I expected, rather it has taken on a much more sensual, feminine expression that is quite beautiful. Layers of juicy red berries, roses and spices come to life as the 1997 turns explosive on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2037.
