Paolo Scavino Barolo Rocche dell'Annunziata Riserva Library Release (1.5L)

From Barolo

Vintage:	2006
Description:	97 Wa / 95 JS / 17 Jr. The 2006 Barolo Riserva Rocche dell'Annunziata is compelling in its open-knit, floral bouquet of freshly cut roses, cherries and raspberries. Sweet, round and perfumed, the wine possesses an appealing combination of elegance wedded to power. Layers of inner perfume continue to develop in the glass, showcasing the unique qualities of one of Piedmont's top sites. This is an immensely promising Barolo from Scavino with several decades of fine drinking ahead. Today the 2006 comes across as more muscular than the decidedly refined 2004. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2031.-Antonio Galloni, The Wine Advocate. This won't be in the market until 2012, but what a wine now. I love the minerals, flowers, and plum character. The light strawberry notes remind me of a fine Pinot Noir. Full and racy with a very, very long finish. I am really impressed.-James Suckling. Just mid ruby with orange tinge. Lifted cherry and oak, but much more vibrant on the palate, but with the fruit still locked in. Waves of fine grainy tannin. Lovely elegant palate weight and a light creaminess on the finish. Fine and seductive and still very young.-Walter Speller, Jancis Robinson
