1999 Langhe Sperss?Dark ruby. The 1999 Sperrs displays much Serralunga character in its licorice, asphalt, herb, and sweet dark fruit flavors, with notable persistence on the palate and a potent personality. A rising of menthol beautifully frames the big, tannic finish. A wine that kept developing in the glass, this Sperss offers outstanding potential for those who are patient enough to wait at least a few years. It should drink well until at least age 25. 95/drink after 2011, 03/06

Subtle. Terrific aromas of crushed flowers and berries, with hints of cherries. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a clean, focused finish. Very fine wine. Balanced. Best after 2008. 2,800 cases made. ?JS
