Barolo, Le Vigne--Vintage 1999
Piedmont. Luciano Sandrone
Tasting Note: I generally prefer Le Vigne, which uses the grapes of a variety of sites in the eastern part of the zone, and the 1999 Barolo Le Vigne is no exception. These soils give a more concentrated Nebbiolo, and the powerfully smoky, tarry, and floral aromas of this Barolo are echoed on the palate, with large-framed, deep, and potent flavours, very mineral and with excellent spice. It is superior in density, texture, and drive. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2022. Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate 149, Oct 2003.
