The 1999 Barolo Parussi, from a vineyard in Castiglione Falletto, is floral, resinous, and chocolaty on the nose. It offers good fruit and tar on the palate in a medium-weight format, but the wine is less ample and the tannins a bit drier than other two Barolo’s in the line. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2015.
