100 Par Vinous
the 2016 Barolo Riserva Runcot is quite possibly the single greatest wine I have tasted in more than 20 years I have been coming here, with the possible exception of the 1989s and 1990s. Deep and powerful, but not at all heavy, the 2016 dazzles from the very first taste. Dark cherry/plum, menthol, lavander, licorice and mocha saturate the palate in a Barolo of extraordinary richness and intensity. The 2016 spent four years in 100% new oakand yet there is no trace at all of wood. Magnificent!
