"Made fromCorvina andpartially dried Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, this structured and gripping wine shows black fruit, red currant, spice and leather aromas. The palate delivers a ripe plum core framed by big, velvety tannins and accents of chocolate, licorice and black pepper. Age this for another three to five years for additional complexities to develop."

"Modest cherry and earth aromas mingle with a strong oaky note. The wine feels good across the palate, although the fruit is a bit light for Cabernet. It's more dry and tart than you'd expect. The solid mouthfeel is its best attribute."

83 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Bolla Creso Rosso Verona IGT" from the vintage 1999 with 83 of 100 points.
"The oak is so aggressive it's as if a tree trunk had been put through a chipper. That pounding wood is clearly masking average Cabernet fruit, fruit that's challenged to begin with in this region of Italy. If you like the side effects of oak, i.e., resin, clove and vanilla, or if you're curious what oak tastes like on certain types of wine, then you can check it out here."
