First produced in 1996, D’Alceo is the estate’s first biodynamic wine, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. This release from 1999 is First Growth quality from a strong vintage. Expect a beautiful fruit core of red berries, dried tomatoes and herbs along with notes of new leather and a touch of black coffee. Powerhouse of a wine.

Vinous
A towering, majestic wine, the 1999 Vigna d'Alceo bursts from the glass with an exotic mélange of dark red/black fruits, iron, incense and scorched earth. Firm tannins support a huge, explosive finish laced with the essence of sweet black cherries, plums, smoke and licorice. Still quite young and virile, the 1999 needs at least a few more years in the cellar. If opened today the 1999 will benefit from advance aeration. Readers who own the 1999 should be thrilled, as it is fabulous. It's as simple as that. Antonio Galloni1st December 2013
