Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Asili Riserva 2000 1.5L [Red Label] (Slightly Scuffed Label)

"The 2000 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is as it always has been; impeccably refined, nuanced and silky from start to finish. I have tasted (or drunk!) this wine at least a dozen times since it was first released. The bouquet shows the faintest signs of positive development while the fruit remains vibrant and beautifully articulated. I don’t see the 2000 Asili Riserva being one of the longest lived Red Labels, but it is unquestionably striking in its beauty." - Wine Advocate, RP98 (AG), tasted 5/2011
