Giovanni Corino Barolo Vecchie Vigne Italy, Piemonte

Vintage: 1999
Description: "The 1999 Barolo Vecchie Vigne is a real beauty today. Round and textured in the glass, the 1999 captures the best of the artisan, modern style prevalent in La Mora during this time. In 1999 the Vecchie Vigne was a blend of fruit from both Giachini and Rocche, so there is less site-specific character, but it is the wine's pure textural beauty that stands out most. Soft, silky and exceptionally polished, the 1999 impresses for its balance and class. Hints of mocha, espresso, plums and cloves resonate on the finish. At the time, Corino's Vecchie Vigne was made from old-vine parcels within Rocche dell'Annunziata and Giachini." 94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous Media)
