The 1999 Barolo Brunate is striking in its beauty. Rich, layered and balsamic, the 1999 boasts gorgeous depth and richness. Menthol, spice, pine and licorice all come to life in a vivid, beautifully
articulated Barolo. The balance of fruit, acidity and tannin is simply remarkable, even if the 1999 is always going to be a bit of a brute. Still, with time in the glass, some of the firmer edges start to soften, releasing the wine’s clarity, nuance and precision. This is another insanely beautiful 1999 Barolo from Roberto Voerzio.
