Asili is one of the most important vineyards of the zone, and the 2000 Barbaresco Asili of the house is a memorable wine, the finest since the superlative 1996. Very ample and penetrating in aroma, with the full panoply of strawberry, black cherry, roses, and wild fennel scents, its dense palate texture, superior concentration and weight, and intense, resonating finish indicate that this is a Barbaresco that will provide profound pleasure over the years. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2025. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
