Note di degustazione
The soft-textured, open 1997 Rocche dell'Annunziata (3-liter) is another beautiful wine. Showing plenty of super-ripe fruit, tar and licorice nuances and a lush personality it nevertheless has plenty of underlying structure as well as balance. It is a great choice for current drinking and its slightly more evolved aromas and flavors suggest it will reach full maturity sooner than the other vintages in this flight.

The 1997 Barolo Riserva Rocche dell’Annunziata is a deep garnet. Its full-barreled aromas of cinnamon, plums, and cedar announce flavors of superior ripeness and sweetness. Plush and sensual with an inner core of strength and length, and a gratifying finish of melting, mouth-coating tannins, it should be drunk between 2005-2018.

The virtually perfect 1997 Barolo Rocche dell Annunziata offers an amazing perfume of roasted nuts, cedar, Provencal herbs, black cherry jam, rose petals, vanilla, and meat. Fabulously concentrated, with multiple flavor dimensions, and a texture that swells in the mouth, this full-bodied, seamless, compelling Barolo is destined to be a legend. Approachable now, it promises to age for two decades. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel.
