Tasting of a group of six Barolos and three Barbarescos from 1997 through 2001. I agreed with Galloni on this one - absolute delicious. My #2.

1997 #LaSpinetta Vürsü Vigneto Gallina. Long cork showing signs of seepage. Plenty of spine but soft enough to really enjoy. Classic fruit and mineral and nose opened up over the first hour. Lush, lovely Barbaresco paired with @acquerellosf xmas takeout!

Absolutely stunning wine. A very floral and vanilla nose with rich and deep fruit and a soft finish.

Still has some dark fruits, mocha and great texture. A little ripe, but duh? Exceptional.

What did you think about it? How was the vintage progressing? Holding up alright?
