Giacosa Scarrone Vigna Mandorlo Barolo 2013

Ripe berry, menthol, licorice and tobacco aromas mingle with whiffs of new leather and truffle. The delicious palate shows both generous fruit and restrained elegance, doling out raspberry jam, anise, clove, vanilla and dried herb framed in firm fine-grained tannins. [Drink now until the mid 2030s.] Score - 94. (Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Sept. 1, 2017) Ripe berry, menthol, licorice and tobacco aromas mingle with whiffs of new leather and truffle.
