Mature mid ruby with narrow orange rim. Savoury minerally nose with mulch, herb liqueur and ripe cherry. Supple and still fresh and with bags of coating tannins. Long and delicious. (WS)

Score 91/100 · Drink 2005-2018, Daniel Thomases, Wine Advocate, Aug 2005

The Barolo and Barolo Riserva are the two wines to look for from this house, and while waiting for the soon to be released 1999 Barolo Riserva, there is no reason not to enjoy the classic 2000 Barolo Ginestra with its aromas of plums, truffles, tar, and mint, its round and solid palate, excellent continuity, and lengthy, balsamic finish. Drink: 2005-2018. Importer: Vignaioli Selections, New York, NY; tel. (212) 686-3095

Medium amber-tinged red. Pretty, perfumed aromas of rose petal, tobacco, leather and truffley underbrush. Then less open in the mouth than on the nose: dense and sweet but also juicy and penetrating, with sound acids for the year. Finishes with substantial chewy tannins that largely avoid dryness.
