1992 Giuseppe Quintarelli Alzero Cabernet Veneto from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 97 points, Wine Spectator 93 points. . This is the tasting note for 1997 Giuseppe Quintarelli Alzero Cabernet Veneto from Wine Advocate - Quintarelli's 1997 Alzero is a masterpiece. Blessed with extraordinary, captivating aromatics, it reveals new layers of spice, licorice, coffee, chocolate, cassis, minerals and sweet dark fruit with each successive taste. What I find most remarkable about this wine is that, despite being packed with jammy, concentrated fruit, it is remarkably light on its feet. It is a wine I never tire of tasting and is not to be missed.
