1998 Barolo, Bruno Giacosa

This is a deep ruby wine with quite high intensity aromas of rose, mint, tar, red cherry and touch of licorice and earth. Dry with medium acidity. Medium bodied and alcohol. The tannin is quite high but fine-grained in nature. Higher than medium intensity flavours of red plum, ripe cherry with notes of vegetal and tar. Fairly long length with red cherry finish. (91)  Quite consistent on nose and palate. Some evolvement on palate but not much. Good length too.

98白喱寶香氣不錯，口感相對稍遜。整體來說有一種均衡感，亦反映到巴洛洛的風格，不錯的酒品。
