1999 Tenimenti Luigi d’Alessandro, Il Bosco, Tuscany, Italy, $40. Lots of black fruit aromas are enhanced by a kiss of anise. Complex fruit unfolds on the palate with an almost sensual feel. Polished tannins and easy acidity are noted on the finish. This one delivers the goods. 90% Syrah. 91/91.

What in the devil are you two reprobates talking about? Been back in the Watkin's Vanilla again? Antifreeze? Missle fuel?

They're yankin' your chain because the d'Allesandro comes from Cortona. Two guys with an atlas and too much time on their hands. (Irritating as hell that they're right, isn't it?)

I think any American should get a free pass about Italian geography, since even the Italians don't know where most of these places are. I have Italian friends here in Seattle that get locations wrong all the time. It's a damned confusing country, 'specially for us provincial American louts.

Hey now, that's not playing fair, Bucko. You, WW and I know you moved that posting from the Aussie thread. Methinks that's a misuse of Moderator power. Shame, Shame.

Welcome to the Italian thread Bucko. I knew we'd get you sooner or later. At least you admit when you see the light, unlike ww, whom I know drinks sw on a regula basis, to swab his palate between reds...

Yeah, I saw that too, and I was going to say something, but I knew Dr. B would use his magical powers eventually. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/rolleyes.gif[/img] Well, he did. I guess SB didn't see where this post originally showed up. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/confused.gif[/img]

Evidently an abhorrant abuse of power even fer the shameless Doktor. As if'n Ised had my nose in the vinegar bottle at the
magical hour of dawn. Him Hath No Shame!!! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/eek.gif[/img] [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/eek.gif[/img]WW [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/eek.gif[/img] [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/eek.gif[/img]

Slippery as an old salamander...... I say, I say we ought to tar and feather the old coot and then make him drink WATER (shudder). Let's round up a posse and blast the coyote......
