Barolo Riserva, Vecchie Viti dei Capalot e delle Brunate--Vintage 2004
Piedmont. Estate-bottled: Roberto Voerzio
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The 2004 Barolo Riserva Vecchie Viti dei Capalot e delle Brunate, tasted from magnum, reveals incredibly density, energy and finesse. The wine has begun to develop quite a bit of complexity since I last tasted it and also appear to be putting on additional weight. A deeply expressive bouquet of truffles, licorice and flowers leads to dark, mineral-laced fruit. This is a great showing for the Capalot. Recent bottles of the 2004 Cerequio and Sarmassa have also lived up to the glowing scores I bestowed upon them a few years ago. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2029. 96 points.
