Piedmont, Bruno Giacosa
Lot 591 levels: into neck; corroded capsules.
Lot 592 levels: bottom neck or better; six slightly protruding corks, four corroded capsules
"Dark ruby. The riveting 1978 Collina Rionda captures all of the classic notes from this historic vineyard in a never-ending counterpoint of aromas and flavors that seduces this taster. Suggestions of violets, cocoa, licorice, iron, asphalt and vibrant sweet dark fruit are just some of the nuances to be found in this highly compelling, monumentally structured Barolo that coats the palate with extraordinary length and complexity. Like the other wines in this flight it appears to be magically youthful. Well-stored bottles will provide an unforgettable drinking experience for another 15-20 years, and perhaps more. 99/drink now-2021, 02/06, Piedmont Report # G7, May 2006.
