A blend of 70% Sangiovese and 30% Merlot, this dark ruby-colored 1999 offers copious quantities of red and black fruits intermixed with spicy wood, new saddle leather, and earth. It possesses surprising complexity for its price, in addition to medium body, a harmonious palate, and nicely integrated acidity and tannin. It should drink well for 3-4 years.
