Stood up a 1996 Giuseppe E Figlio Mascarello Barolo Ca d'Morissio Riserva Monprivato this weekend. Pulled the cork this morning and poured a quick taste before the gym. I'm not the best judge of wine at 4:45am but it was already very nice. Hopefully it opens up a bit more doing the slox ox all day. A little pasta and black truffle on the menu tonight.

Still sitting on two of these. Love to hear how it shows when you get around to opening it.


I will try to remember, though it's one of several bottles I'm standing for mrs bman's birthday supper this weekend, meaning she may choose another bottle. I'd have mentioned the others too but couldn't remember the vintages off the top of my head!

I don't think our thoughts will be much use to you TLV. While we liked it we found that it really wasn't our style. It was very tannic and rustic, too much so on opening but then after a half hour in the decanter and with some gorgonzola gnocchi first and grilled red meat second it smoothed out and because nicer. But still not really our style. The restaurant owner and server both loved it though, FWIW!

Smile It should! Hey, did you ever get paid for it? I was going to take a 1982 Leoville Poyferre to a BYO dinner, but I figured a Burgundy would be better. This place has plenty of seafood options.


Don't know if you have the 1990 Leoville Poyferre in your cellar, but for my palate it is one of the very finest from a great vintage.

I have the other two Leovilles.
I have the 90 Poyferre and look forward to popping it. Would love to do a side by side comparison with all 3 1990 Leovilles.
