Score 17/20 · Drink 1992-2024, Walter Speller, jancisrobinson.com, Sep 2016
Labelled Piemonte Vino da Tavola. Poured from double magnum. Deep ruby with bricky rim. There is more than a hint of Médoc here, yet this is riper and with plenty of acidity and really fine, gravelly tannins. I can understand the initial international admiration for this wine. Still in great form. (WS)
