Description
Paolo Scavino Carobric, Barolo DOCG, Italy 2000
WA 94 | WINE ADVOCATEThe 2000 Barolo Carobric (magnum) is an exotic, full-bodied wine loaded with scorched earth, licorice, tar and smoke, all of which add considerable nuance to a massive core of fruit. This hulking, seamless Barolo is at least a few years from early maturity and should continue to drink well for many, many years. It is simply magnificent. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030. |
WS 94 | WINE SPECTATORWonderfully fresh and floral, with strawberry, raspberry and cut cedar aromas. Full-bodied, with refined tannins and a clean, fresh finish. Builds on the palate. Very elegant and long. Not quite the 1997 or 1995, but clearly outstanding. Best after 2008. |
AG 92+ | VINOUSThe 2000 Carobric is not terribly expressive in its aromatics, but it really shines on the palate where it opens to reveal masses of deeply concentrated fruit and brooding, full-bodied personality. As it sits in the glass notes of tar, licorice and tobacco gradually emerge, but it remains a densely packed wine in need of at least several years of cellaring. It also comes across as the most successful vintage for this wine and is irresistible. |
