Description: Consists of 1 Double Magnum, 3L
Packaging: OWC.
Score: 94 AG.
"Ceretto's1999 Barbaresco Bricco Asili is one of the superstars of this challenging vintage. A rare 1999 Barbaresco that keeps getting better with age, the Asili boasts gorgeous depth, expressive aromatics and a fabulous sense of silkiness. Crushed flowers, sweet red berries and cinnamon all lift from the glass in a wine of incomparable finesse. Over the last few years the French oak has finally been digested and the 1999 is now firing on all cylinders. What a fabulous surprise the 1999 has turned out to be." Vinous, Aug 2014
