Description

95 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): “Scavino’s 1996 Bric del Fiasc, tasted from magnum, is one of the truly great versions of this wine. It offers captivating notes of tar, licorice and menthol along with a tightly wound core of vibrant dark fruit on a structured, deeply expressive frame of notable length. Though starting to show some tertiary nuances, this Barolo will be even better in a few years. (Oct 2006)”

93+ points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): “Full red-ruby. Bright, fruit-driven aromas of spiced cherry, minerals and licorice; sweet yet utterly fresh and vibrant. Extremely intensely flavored and brilliantly delineated, with a floral note of dried rose adding nuance. Perfectly integrated acids carry the flavors through a very long, ripely tannic finish. Wonderfully aromatic already, but structured to age. (Nov 2000)”

93 points Wine Spectator: “Gorgeous aromas of ripe raspberry, plum and roasted coconut. Full-bodied, with loads of bright fruit, fine tannins and a long, chewy finish. Already closed up; give it time. Best after 2004. 830 cases made. (12/31/00)”
