Note di degustazione
The 1999 Barolo Brunate is striking in its beauty. Rich, layered and balsamic, the 1999 boasts gorgeous depth and richness. Menthol, spice, pine and licorice all come to life in a vivid, beautifully articulated Barolo. The balance of fruit, acidity and tannin is simply remarkable, even if the 1999 is always going to be a bit of a brute. Still, with time in the glass, some of the firmer edges start to soften, releasing the wine's clarity, nuance and precision. This is another insanely beautiful 1999 Barolo from Roberto Voerzio.

Dark ruby. The Barolo Brunate reveals a penetrating nose of roses, licorice, menthol and toasted oak along with beautifully delineated layers of dark red fruit in a heady combination of aromas and flavors that seduce the taster. It displays great length on the palate, yet in a more delicate and less concentrated expression of Barolo than the La Serra, with extraordinary balance and elegance that fully captures the essence of this famous site. This shut down quickly in the glass and will require a few years in the bottle after which it should drink beautifully to age 20. A very special wine.
The 1999 Barolo Brunate, with ample chocolate, wild cherry, and licorice scents, is intense and persistent in flavor, but it is slightly dry on the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2015. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
