Tasting Notes

Very, very ripe fruit with strawberries and plums galore. Turns to Indian spices and cedar. Full bodied with an exquisite palate of ultra ripe tannins that turn to velvet. long, long finish. Cashmere. Great from barrel, great from bottle. This is the best Bric del Fiasc ever. 98 Points, James Suckling

James Suckling, Wine Spectator, July 2004

Good full red. Dee p aromas of redcurrant, smoke and earth. Also rather backward, but shows a lighter touch than the Carobric, with sweeter fruit. Intensely flavored but not weighty, with more classic Barolo energy and notes of flowers and tar. Subtle and flavorful Barolo, finishing with serious tannic backbone for aging.
