The 2001 Barbaresco Costa Rubin shows what 2001 is going to offer in its brilliant ruby/garnet tonality, expansive and expressive nose of ripe fruit, anisette, cinnamon, and sandalwood and its fresh, firm, and supple flavors, well supported by the tannins but without any sign of roughness or dryness. Drink: 2005-2016.
