1983 Rampolla, Sammarco, IGT 1x75cl

Vinous 90

The 1983 Sammarco is dark, rich and powerful, with plenty of tertiary character in its hints of torrefaction, smoke, worn-in leather, menthol, licorice and dark-fleshed fruit. Although fully mature, the 1983 has maintained considerable intensity for a wine of its age. Still, the time has come to finish any remaining bottles. [Antonio Galloni, 10/01/2015]

Anticipated maturity: 2015-2017
