Score 94/100 · Drink 2012-2030, Robert Parker, Aug 2000

The stunning aromatics of the 1996 Barolo is full-bodied and muscular. It possesses high tannin as well as extract, and mouth-searing acidity that gives the wine both great precision as well as a frightfully backward character. A super-dense, extracted, and rich Barolo, it will not be ready to drink for a decade. Discipline in the form of cellaring is definitely required for this fabulous Barolo. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2030. Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 629-0200
