96 Points

Friday, October 9, 2020 - Annual Pilgrimage to Piedmont - 2020 Edition; 10/9/2020-10/11/2020 (Piemonte, Italy): We were offered a glass by the owner of Il Centro a Priocca, Piedmont . Blind
This for us was a 50yr old + Madeira and we would have bet money on it.
Dark caramel in color, glossy though and bright. Soft oxidation, nutty, caramel feel and really all the textbook aromatics we associate with great Madeira . On the palate it’s impressively energetic and with lots of depth of flavour and super complex. Maybe the best wine we have ever tried out of Sicily. 96

    For a 75 year old wine, your notes are impressive...I bet there is still life left, no?

    Thanks for sharing this!
