Scavino Barolo "Bric del Fiasc" 1999 1.5L

92 WA

Notes:

The 1999 is a big, strapping Bric del Fiasc, boasting a lot of structure and a potent, brooding personality. Though it offers plenty of fruit and the rich style that is the hallmark of this wine, it also comes across as somewhat heavy and lacking the elegance of the finest vintages. 92/Anticipated maturity: 2011-2024. Bric del Fiasc, was first produced in 1978. The vineyard is located in Castiglione Falletto and the wines from this plot are generally the biggest and most structured of the estates lineup. In important vintages Bric del Fiasc requires at least several years of cellaring. Today vintages 1989 and 1990 appear to still be fresh and youthful and my guess is that recent vintages will age at least as well given that they were made from lower yields and with a much greater sense of awareness towards other factors affecting quality.
