December 27, 2023 - Served next to 98 Giacosa Santo Stefano and 99 Monprivato, this wine just edged out the other two. Truly showing great with beautiful dried cherry, minerals, spice, licorice and a hint of tar. Altogether a seamless wine that sparkles in the mouth.

February 27, 2018 - Here I found a gorgeous, dark and brooding bouquet with animal musk up front, giving way to mineral-infused crushed black cherry, licorice, dried orange, stone dust and dusty roses. On the palate, I found silky textures with saline-mineral thrust, before giving way to tart black cherry, inner rosey florals and youthful fine tannin. The finish was long with lasting fine tannins and mineral-soaked red berry fruit.

May 16, 2017 - Scuro, introverso, concentrato, terroso. Lontano dall' eleganza floreale e dal fruttino rosso dei Ca' d' Morissio di oggi.
Ha bisogno di tante ore di aria, e non va asoslutamente bevuto insieme a un Pinot Noir, per evitare che il divario di eleganza e finezza diventi incolmabile.1 person found this helpful Comment -

April 25, 2014 - Eric's notes below tell the story. Restrained nose at first but with more air time it is opening up. Beautiful Nebbiolo color. Long fresh finish.
When cork was pulled my initial reaction was that I expected more saturation based 19 years in the bottle. I feel the cork condition is a good indication
that the given drinking window to 2033 is accurate. This is elegant and rewarding now but should continue to improve gaining even more subtle complexity.

5/4/2005 (link)(Giuseppe Mascarello Ca' d'Morissio Riserva) This was great but had a tough act to follow. Not as complex or deep as the '96 but not many wines are. Great density in the mouth and amazing ripeness. Seamless with a wealth of fruit and tremendous complexity. Very nutty along with piercing minerality on the huge finish. Great length.
