Giuseppe Mascarello & Figlio Barolo Monprivato Cà d’Morissio Riserva 2004
Score: 98 points
Release Price: $450
Special Designation: Collectibles
Settling into a phase of maturation, this powerful red offers floral, truffle, macerated cherry, leather and spice aromas and flavors. Sweet and balanced, with fruit, mineral and savory elements lingering on the aftertaste. Still youthful, this remains approachable, and should peak in a year or two. Best from 2015 through 2040. 200 cases made.—Bruce Sanderson
