The 2000 Barocco adds Cabernet Sauvignon and its black currant fruit to the aromas of Montepulciano. But the sensations on the palate are less warm and generous, the tannins less round, the overall impression more severe. There is some room for improvement with more age here, but I have some doubts about the final balance. Drink: 2006-2009.Importer: Matt Bros., New York, NY; tel. (212) 587-8147
