The 1992 Marchese di Villamarina exhibits a dark plum/garnet color, a roasted coffee, chocolatey, over-ripe plum and cherry-scented nose, and rich, round, savory flavors. It is a husky, robust wine loaded with character. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. This wine possesses a southern, hot climate, roasted character with an intriguing nose of asphalt, black fruits, spice, and animal fur.
