Producer tasting notes: (1998 vintage) "The colour is garnet red with ruby hues. The aroma is intense, persistent, with clear scents of fruit, dog rose and spices. The taste is full-bodied but at the same time harmonious and balanced, with graceful, never-too-prominent tannins." - Marchesi di Barolo
