"Spicy and complex on the nose (the wine spends 30 months in barrel), the 1998 Barolo Riserva Runcot is ample and penetrating in aroma as well with a powerful, richly oaky, mineral, and tarry palate." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"Good full red, with a hint of amber at the rim. Burnished red fruits, roast coffee and nutty, smoky oak on the nose; completely different from the estate's other two 1998 Barolos. Very sweet, generous and smooth, with a layered texture. Finishes with substantial sweet, dusty tannins and excellent length." - Vinous
