Dark red. Massolino's 1999 Barolo is a great introduction to the distinctive qualities of Serralunga terroir. It is a medium-bodied effort displaying a floral nose, along with tobacco, licorice and dark fruit flavors. It should drink well relatively early for the vintage and be at its finest between 2007-2014.

Score 88/100 · Drink 2005-2015, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Oct 2003
The 1999 Barolo, with ample aromas of tar, chocolate, and roses and a tarry, mineral palate, offers good length and depth and significant concentration for a regular bottling. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2015. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
