Score 91-93/100 · Drink 2001-2014, Robert Parker, Aug 1999

This wine exhibits a saturated ruby color with purple nuances. Additionally, it is rich, with lots of extract, tannin, and body. The seductive, dark ruby-colored 1996 Barbaresco Bricco Asili offers a classic bouquet of road tar, cherry liqueur, tobacco, and dried herbs. Medium to full-bodied, and surprisingly supple for the vintage, it exhibits firm tannin in the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2014. Importer: Veuve Clicquot, New York, NY; tel. (212) 888-7575

Ruby red. Deep but extremely reticent nose; this shows very primary hints of cherry, minerals, chocolate and marzipan. Sweet, dense and very concentrated; juicy acidity gives the fruit lovely snap and grip. Finishes with fine, suave tannins and subtle, persistent flavor. A strong wine with considerable potential.
