Tasting note: Voerzio’s 2004 Barolo Brunate captures the telltale balsamic notes of this justly famous site with gorgeous suggestions of mint, tobacco and licorice wrapped around an expressive, authoritative core of plush dark plums, prunes and black cherries. This dark, brooding Barolo finishes with big, building tannins that will require patience. A bottle of the 1997 I tasted alongside it had developed a flavor profile eerily similar to that of a 1991 Jaboulet Aine Hermitage La Chapelle I tasted a few days prior. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. (97pts AG, Wine Advocate)
Tasted: Dec 2007
Score: 97
Drink: 2014-2024
Tasting note:Dark ruby in color. Aromas of blackberry, licorice and aniseed. Full-bodied, chewy and very rich, with a tannic yet polished texture. Not giving much now, but there's excellent structure and balance. Muscular. Best after 2012. 310 cases made. (95pts JS, Wine Spectator)
