Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2016, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Aug 2005

The 2000 Barolo Castiglione is made principally from grapes of the township of Castiglione Falletto where the Vietti cellars are located. A medium garnet, it features dried fruit and flowers on the nose, a balanced, medium-weight palate, much freshness and force on the mid-palate and the close, and some interesting tar and leather notes for additional complexity. Drink: 2005-2016. Importer: Remy Amerique, New York, NY; tel. (212) 424-2202

Score 90/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2004

Medium red with an amber edge. Superripe, slightly reduced aromas of smoke, game and camphor. Fat, sweet and full, but without quite the depth of flavor of the 2001. Still, this has lovely brea dth and finishes with sweeter tannins than the '01.
