1997 Pio Cesare Barolo DOCG 1.5L

"Medium red, with hints of garnet on the edge. Aromas of very ripe strawberry, with cedar, dried mushroom and spices. Fabulous roses on the nose. Full-bodied, with seductive flavors and textures. Strawberry, tea, tar and roses galore, yet refined and subtle. So very long and dense, yet balanced and beautiful. Even better than I remember. *Ranked #7 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2001*" 95/100 - Wine Spectator
