1999 Barbaresco Vigneto Brich Ronchi

The 1999 Barbaresco Vigneto Bric Ronchi is now fully mature. Blackberry jam, mushrooms, worn-in leather, licorice and scorched earth inform a huge, opulent Barbaresco with tons of intensity. Still, the 1999 is at the end of its road, and needs to be enjoyed within the next year or two at most.
