1997 Mastroberardino Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC Rosso

28th Oct 1999 GBP12 Italy Table Red

Even plum/red.
Soft, ripe berries on the restrained nose.
Medium to full-bodied with charred oak flavours and some pepper. Hard tannins, juicy acidity and a green, tobacco finish.
Good but needs another 3 to 5 years.
