Opus One 1997 750ml

Antonio Galloni rating system employs a 100 point wine scoring scale. While ratings may influence your decision, the ultimate judgment is your palate.

Antonio joined Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate as the Italian wine critic in 2006. Champagne was next in 2008, confirming the dual passions that had first ignited Antonio’s passion years before. In 2013 Antonio left the TWA to start Vinous. At the time of his departure, Galloni was the lead critic at The Wine Advocate, and had authored 1/3rd of the reviews published by TWA in 2012. Galloni also ran the world’s most followed bulletin board on Italian wines and spearheaded TWA’s production of video content. He developed tailored public events & seminars such as the highly anticipated “La Festa del Barolo,” vertical tastings focused on the benchmark wines of Italy, and numerous charity dinners.
