Tasting note: Well-balanced Barolo. Intense aromas of grilled meat and ripe fruit. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, rich aftertaste. Gorgeous. Best after 2003. 1,250 cases made. (91pts. JS, Wine Spectator)
Tasted: Dec. 31, 2000
Score: 91
Drink: After 2003
Tasting note: Bright red-ruby. Spicy red berries, plum and shoe polish on the nose. Juicy and fruit-driven, if on the lean side. Lacks real middle-palate flesh. Finishes with rather spiky tannins and slightly sour acidity. (85pts. Stephen Tanzer)
Tasted: Nov/Dec 2000
Score: 85
Drink: N/A
