Tasting Notes and Scores
This wine possesses lots of glycerin, low acidity, and a forward, unreal, atypical lushness and opulence. I was turned on by the 1997 Barolo Prapo. Its personality is dominated by earth and white truffles. Opaque ruby/purple-colored with a dazzling display of jammy cherry fruit, mushrooms, new oak, smoke, and Asian spices, this full-bodied, fabulously concentrated wine reveals no hard edges. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020. Importer: Veuve Clicquot, New York, NY; tel. (212) 888-7575

Medium red-orange. Spicy aromas of redcurrant, clove, dried flowers and tobacco. Juicy, bright and delineated, with noteworthy shape and structure. Quite spicy at the core. Substantial firm tannins are very nicely buffered. Finishes with excellent persistence.
