I was prompted to pull a cork on this when Kim posted earlier in the week on the '99 Rocce Rosso.

2006 AR.PE.PE. Valtellina Superiore - Grumello Riserva Rocca de Piro - Italy, Lombardia, Valtellina, Valtellina Superiore - Grumello (10/18/2014)
Translucent ruby in the glass; cherry-scented menthol nose on this popped & poured wine. Nice legs.
Smooth, yet edgy at the same time. Vibrant acidity, with sweet & sour cherry fruit. Very nice - elegant; a wine you could sit on the couch with and ponder while listening to some jazz (as I am right now with Kenny Burrell on the stereo).
