2000 Giacomo Borgogno Barolo Riserva DOCG

(93 points) More evolved than the '01 or '99, this offers a complex bouquet of cherry, truffle, licorice, leather and tar, with cherry, licorice spice and tea flavors. Though rich, this presents a firm underlying base of tannins, offset by the sweet aftertaste of fruit, spice and tobacco.--Non-blind Giacomo Borgogno vertical (October 2013). Drink now through 2025.
