This was my last bottle of 1997 Marietta's Angeli Cuvee. A blend of Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, and Carignan, displaying both dark & red fruits with an abundance of sweetness, with a rich dark black purple color. No sign of loosing its fruit, I would buy more if I could find it! 91/93 points

latour;
I had my last bottle of this in April and it was outstanding...and would buy more as well. The '99 is really good, too, but not up to par w/the '97.

I still have a couple of bottles of the 1999, but as you said, it is not up to par with the 1997 Angeli!

Love this wine! I finished all my 1997s and 1999s. I'd love to find the 2002.


Just one more sip.

Same comments as Board-o. Finished all my '97s & '99s. Great stuff. Was there a '00 or '01?? Never saw one. This wine is now hard to find in my neck of the woods.

Everybody knows about it now. I got my 1999s online. Last one I saw in a store was the 1997.


Just one more sip.
