WINE =======: 1967 Marchesi Di Barolo Barolo
Tasting Date: 2004-02-27
Score       : 96
Country     : Italy

Notes
-----
A local supermarket was clearing out a big stock of wine
from the back and put these on sale for $50. I have tasted
some vintages from this distributor and have been thoroughly
un-impressed but I figured, $50 for a 35+ year old barolo
was worth a try.
Color of deep red tracing to pink and amber/yellow edges,
perfect cork.
Nose of heavy cassis, blackcurrant, saddle leather, hint of
straw, subtle smokiness
HUGE finish.  Very impressive - one of the longest finishes
of any wine I've ever had.  Very tasty.

Additional Notes
----------------
Sadly, this wine is all gone and nowhere to be found in the same retail
outlet.
