    Antonio Galloni,
    Vinous
    The 1999 Barolo Ciabot Mentin Ginestra is a deep, emotional wine that brings back so many memories of tasting at the old Clerico winery with Domenico Clerico, his then winemaker Massimo Conterno and the team. Deep, rich and explosive on the palate, the 1999 Ciabot captures the spirit of the vintage and this era in Piedmont with its voluptuous depth, stunning richness and exceptional balance. Dark plum, mocha, espresso, spices and grilled herbs saturate the palate in a vivid, nuanced wine that is simply spellbinding.
