Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Region: Italy, Piedmont, Barolo.
Score: 95 RP.
"Reminiscent of a right bank Pomerol from the late forties, the dark garnet/amber-edged 1997 Barolo Prapo possesses aromas and flavors of singed leather, espresso, melted caramel, black cherries, smoke, and Christmas fruitcake. Atypical for a young Nebbiolo, it is succulent, fleshy, and undeniably compelling, rich, seamless, and concentrated." Wine Advocate #135, Jun 2001
Provenance: The Multitude Cellar
Notes: Very lightly scuffed, very lightly bin soiled capsule, bin soiled, damp stained label.
