2003 Paolo Scavino Barolo

2003 Paolo Scavino Nebbiolo Barolo Bric Del Fiasc (WS: 94 WA: 92)

Wine Spectator says this 2003 Barolo has "wonderful aromas of licorice, fresh mushroom and blackberry. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, caressing finish. Goes on and on. Solid and enticing. Excellent for the vintage." And Robert Parker adds: "Scavino's 2003 Barolo Bric del Fiasc is without question the most balanced of these 2003 Barolos as it has more than enough fruit to stand up to the wine's structural components. A big, dark, brooding wine, this richly-textured, sumptuous Barolo is packed with sweet dark fruit, chocolate, menthol, smoke and spices that coat the palate with superb intensity. Not for the faint of heart."
