1997 Moccagatta Barbaresco Basarin

jamesmolesworthSenior Editor Wine Spectator

Rich and truffly, with lots of tar, lilac, spice and black currant flavors. Long, dark finish shows some mature hints, but plenty of stuffing here, with a slightly chewy edge still to be shed. Drink now through 2016. 93 points.
