Score 87/100 · Drink 2013, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jun 2013
The 1987 L'Apparita is the first wine in this tasting that is totally mature. Beef bouillon, earthiness, tobacco and worn-in leather inform the powerful, if rustic, finish. There is no reason to hold any remaining bottles further. Low temperatures in the spring delayed flowering by a good two weeks, while the weather during the rest of the year was uneven.
