Marchesi di Barolo Barolo, 1999

As the final wine of a delightful Nebbiolo evening, this 25-year-old Barolo performed well. It is drinking beautifully but gives no sign of growing old.

Medium ruby with orangish tones typical of Nebbiolo. Red cherries, roses and licorice, as you might expect. Both red and black fruits. Acidity that makes it dance across the palate.
