pirramimma cabernet sauvignon '99

[RAD]

Lib,

A bit of manners are in order, as is some understanding that we're operating in an electronic medium here--it's easy to read "just words" incorrectly without access to tone of voice, body language, etc. Foodie can spell just fine--the error in question is one of transposition, and obviously a typo rather than an egregious error per se.

I don't think Foodie was being sarcastic. The phrase "alcoholic students" sets off all kinds of red flags here in the US, where the minimum drinking age is 21.

I'm not familiar with this wine per se, but cabernets are typically a dark ruby/garnet in color; typical aromas/flavors are cassis, black cherry, perhaps some vanilla/oak/cedar depending on the type of oak and length in which it was aged; and often some significant tannins on the finish if the wine is young.
