Score 95/100 · Drink 2002-2022, Robert Parker, Dec 2002

The profound 1999 Acininobili was fashioned from the same blend as the Torcolato, but was aged two years in 100% new French oak. It represents the pinnacle of sweet winemaking in Italy. A staggering bouquet of creme brulee mixed with aromas of honeyed pineapple, peaches, and acacia flowers is accompanied by a medium gold-colored, full-bodied wine with great richness, fabulous purity, and outstanding precision given the good acidity. The alcohol is 14.2% and the residual sugar is 210 grams per liter, so this is a whoppingly rich, full-bodied Chateau d'Yquem look-alike from northeastern Italy. It should drink well for two decades or more. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
