The Giovanni Corino Barolo 1997 is a splendid vintage that resonates with a wine connoisseur's desire for quality and complexity. Produced in the famed Piedmont region of Italy, this wine is a testament to the classic Barolo style, characterised by immense structure, potent tannins, and remarkable ageing potential. The Corino family, diligent custodians of the revered Nebbiolo grapes for four generations, have cultivated an enviable legacy in the world of fine wine. With meticulous devotion, Giovanni Corino and his sons employ time-honoured viniculture techniques to create wines that truly embody the terroir. The 1997 vintage is encased in an explosion of bright red fruit, subtle notes of leather, and fine, mellowed tannins, signifying its ageing prowess. This magnum opus of Corino's craftsmanship reaffirms the Giovanni Corino Barolo 1997 as an icon of Italy's viticultural heritage. Relish this panoramic and textured acclamation of the Piedmont’s bountiful grace. |

Vinous (88)Good deep red. Nose currently dominated by smoky, roasted wood scents; comes across as a bit diffuse. Fat and full, but lacks clarity and precision. The tannins seem a bit aggressive today. I don't get a lot of verve. A disappointing bottle, or perhaps simply in an awkward stage. |

Vinous (92)Good full red. Fresh, spicy aromas of cherry, camphor, licorice and dried flowers. Fat, sweet and pliant; a step up in complexity and concentration from the Arborina. Finishes very long, with lush, fine tannins. A very successful, thoroughly ripe '97 Barolo. |
