Score 90/100 · Drink 2001-2009, Robert Parker, Jun 2001
The 1997 Barbaresco Paje's evolved garnet color with an amber edge is followed by notes of sweet caramel, coffee, jammy cherry fruit, licorice, and smoke. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, with wonderful lushness, and an expansive, low acid finish, this 1997 Barbaresco is meant to be drunk now and over the next 7-8 years. Importer: Louis Dressner Selections, New York, NY; tel. (212) 334-8191.
