99 AG. "The 1982 Barolo Riserva Monfortino is one of my very favorite Barolos, and tonight it is fantastic. This is an especially elegant, refined Monfortino that impresses more for its inner sweetness and perfume rather than the extroverted fruit that defines vintages such as 1968, 1978, 1985, 1990 and 1997. The wine's length and overall balance are nothing short of spellbinding. This wine was tasted over dinner at the Third Annual White Truffle Charity Dinner in November 2009."
