1999 Colle Dei Venti Tufo Blu Barolo

Does anyone know anything about this wine? I have a bottle of it and I can't really find out much information. Should I drink it now? Should I wait? Help?

I think it is made by the same people responsible for the more famous Icardi wines (Tabaren, Pafoj, etc.). That's about all I know about it, though. I would imagine that a Barolo from a good vintage would last, yet the Icardis seem to drink early. If you do open it, please do post something about it - we're having a Piemonte month in Wine Focus!
I don't drink wine because of religious reasons ... only for other reasons.

Some notes here on other vintages! Not always reliable.
