Fine-grained tannins sneak in very slowly and meld seamlessly with the energetic fruit

melted tar and crushed violet scents

concentrated and jam-packed with black fruit preserves and fantastic freshness to balance

It is medium to full-bodied on the palate

I wish there were more wineries setting their sights on this level of quality

Paolo Scavino, Barolo Bric Fiasc Vintage:2016 Fine-grained tannins sneak in veryThe 2000 Barolo Bric del Fiasc (magnum) explodes onto the palate with layers of raspberry jam, new leather, licorice and spices, showing tons of intensity, expressive inner sweetness and an impossibly long, powerful finish. Bric del Fiasc is usually a massively tannic wine, but in 2000 the fruit has enough intensity to nearly cover the tannins. This is superb, great Bric del Fiasc. Antonio Galloni
