Light, but with gorgeous elegance, complexity, and symmetry, the dark ruby-colored 1997 Barbaresco Bric Turot emerges from a 14.8 acre vineyard. This complex Barbaresco offers aromas of cherry jam, spice box, tobacco, and leather. Full-bodied, but not heavy, this rich, concentrated effort can be drunk now, but promises to evolve for another 10-15 years. Importer: Remy Amerique, New York, NY; tel. (212) 399-0200
