Score 90/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2004
Good medium red. Aromas of plum, licorice, tar and herbs; hints at syrupy superripeness without coming across as decadent. Then lush and rich in the mouth; soft in the middle but maintains good verve. Very full, smooth, elegantly styled Barolo, with near-roasted notes of plum and tar. Finishes with big but fine tannins and very good chocolatey persistence.
