Borgogno’s 2000 Barolo Liste is a powerhouse. Dark red fruit, licorice, iron and leather are some of the aromas and flavors that emerge from this muscular, authoritative Barolo. Hints of rose petals follow, adding lovely inner sweetness, perfume and lift. The 2000 Liste remains a young Barolo that will drink well for another decade, perhaps longer. Whether the tannins will ever become truly polished is another question. Readers looking for the seductiveness of the 2000 vintage won’t find much of that easy going personality in this brawny Barolo. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2023.
