Score 90/100 · Drink 2004-2010, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Aug 2005
The 2000 Barolo Albe shows all the fragrance and elegance of the vintage in its rose petal and iris nose, given an additional complexity by the notes of cinnamon and anise. The firm body, melting tannins, warmth, and vigor indicate another dozen years of life ahead. It is nothing like the powerhouse 1999 Barolo Bricco delle Viole of the house, but, then again, the two vintages are not exactly of comparable quality either. Various American importers, including Martin Scott Wines, Little Neck, NY; tel. (516) 327-0808

Deep ruby, heady with perfume. Complex and interesting. So deep, dark and seductive you could get lost in this. It postively dances... (JR)
