Score 89/100 · Drink 2001-2009, Robert Parker, Oct 2001

This delicious, sexy, open-knit Barbaresco reveals a medium ruby color with amber already appearing at the edge. Stunning aromatics of melted licorice, cherry jam, spice box, balsam wood, and herbs leap from the glass of this fleshy, medium to full-bodied, ripe, open knit offering. Drink this seductive 1998 over the next 7-8 years. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
