2004 La Spinetta (Rivetti) Barbaresco Riserva Vursu Vigneto Valeirano (1.5L) [OWC-1]

"98 out of 100 - This wine was tasted in a magnum. The 2004 Barbaresco Riserva Vigneto Valeirano is my favorite wine of the bunch. Those delicate tones of dried ginger, white truffle, pressed flower and rose petal are gorgeous on every conceivable level. The wine is dark, ethereal and brooding. Never still, it displays a quick succession of evolutionary phases even after a few minutes in the glass. I wouldn?t even think of touching this bottle for another ten years. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2035." - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
