Score 91/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Nov 2013
Dried red cherries, savory herbs, mint, anise and leather meld together in a striking, nuanced Barolo long on class and pedigree. A model of total class and elegance, the 2003 has stood the test of time quite well. Any remaining bottles should be enjoyed over the next decade. This is an impeccable wine from Bruno Giacosa and his long-time winemaker Dante Scaglione.

About the producer
Bruno Giacosa
Bruno Giacosa – now run by daughter Bruna – is a cult Nebbiolo producer, that has consistently made some of the best single-vineyard Barbaresco and Barolo from the 1960s onwards. The“red-label” Riservas are some of the finest and most collectable wines in Italy.
