Score 90/100 · Drink 2004-2008, Robert Parker, Jun 2004
The outstanding 2001 La Grola is dominated by Corvina with small quantities of Rondinella, Syrah, and Sangiovese included in the blend. It was aged 16 months in wood prior to bottling. A dense ruby/purple-tinged color is followed by heady aromas of black cherry liqueur, smoke, roasted meats, licorice, and espresso. This seriously endowed, medium to full-bodied, ripe, textured, well-made Italian red should drink well for 3-4 years. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
