Score 89-91/100 · Drink 2002-2014, Robert Parker, Aug 1999
This wine exhibits a saturated ruby color with purple nuances. Additionally, it is rich, with lots of extract, tannin, and body. The 1996 Barbaresco Faset is not very aromatically complex. It reveals oak, in addition to a raspberry/black cherry fruit component. Rich, medium-bodied, and potentially outstanding, it will be at its finest between 2002-2014.

Deep red-ruby color. Sappy black cherry nose, but slightly tired (perhaps this sample is short on SO2). Thick, sweet and packed with fruit; has good weight and balancing acidity. Finishes with strong, slightly dusty tannins.
