Score 90-93/100 · Robert Parker
The superb 1996 Barolo La Serra's opaque ruby/purple color is followed by aromas of black fruits (blackberry, cherry, and a hint of raspberry), superb purity, highly extracted, powerful, monster-sized flavors, mouth-searing levels of tannin, and an impressively endowed, 40+ second finish. This backward, pure, intensely concentrated Barolo will require patience. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2025. Importer: Viva Vino, Eddystone, PA; tel. (610) 872-1500 Aug 1999, www.robertparker.com
