"As the 2001 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is poured, notes of licorice and menthol jump out of the glass. Showing a darker color than the normale, this sensual Barolo is weighty and rich, with excellent concentration and a voluptuous mouthfeel in its generous expression of ripe dark fruit, cherries in liqueur and toasted oak flavors. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016.
Luigi Scavino may be less well known than some of his more famous neighbors, but make no mistake about it, the wines from Scavino’s estate, Azelia, can hold their own with the very best of the region. The wines combine power and elegance with a level of virtuosity matched by few in the region. Although the wines show much concentration and oak influence, there can be no doubt that the overall balance and sense of proportion of these wines is excellent. “My dream is to make a wine that is great today, but that will be even better in 10 years and in 20 years,” says Scavino. Speaking of his 2001s, Scavino says, “I prefer 2001 to 2000, it was a vintage with less heat, so the wines are fresher and more typical?more ‘Piedmontese’ if you will.”" - The Wine Advocate

Chateau Fonroque St. Emilion 2009
France
/
Bordeaux
"I agree with Alain Moueix that this is the greatest Fonroque he has ever made. From one of the few bio-dynamically farmed vineyards in St.-Emilion, this 2009 exhibits a dense ruby/purple color as well as a big, crisp, precise nose of forest floor, black and red fruits, crushed rocks, and earth. Dense, muscular, and masculine, this rich, full-bodied, deep, impressively endowed effort will benefit from 5-7 years of cellaring, and should drink well for 25+."--The Wine Advocate
