The 1999 Rocce Rosse Riserva is a simply beautiful expression of Nebbiolo. After nearly 20 years in bottle this is still showing restraint as it is slow to show off its aromas of light red fruits, floral, spices, herbs and cedar aromas. On the palate this is refined, remarkably elegant and beautifully structured with fine tannins which are extremely silky and polished. Despite its age, the ’99 still appears to have a long future ahead and should continue to drink well for at least another decade, but likely longer.
