Scores

"Medium with a hint of amber. Highly complex, scented nose combines red plum, cherry, strawberry, clove, medicinal herbs and a hint of orange zest. Intensely flavored, juicy and tightly wound, with lovely cut and definition to the red fruit and spice flavors. Very concentrated, tactile wine whose firm tannic spine will require at least several years of cellaring. Finishes with terrific lift." Score: 93+ Points Stephen Tanzer

Tasting Notes

A wine with great ageing potential, the 2011 has a perfumed nose of crushed rose petals and sweet strawberries with deeper black currant and morello cherry characters in the background. The palate is rich and layered with gorgeous, dark cherry fruit flavours balanced by smooth, velvety tannins and refreshing acidity. Exotic spices, truffles and a hint of dark chocolate add a further layer of depth and complexity. This very complex wine will be delicious to drink in a few years and will age well for another decade or two. Drink from 2018.

ProducerBruno Giacosa

Known as the “Genius of Neive”, Bruno Giacosa’s mastery of Nebbiolo was widely recognised amongst wine lovers. His single-vineyards Barolo and Barbaresco set new standards for the whole regions, allowing a unique blend of traditional and cutting-edge methods. His research of perfection was passed on to his daughter Bruna, who has been at the helm of the estate since 2006, blessing us with some of the most electrifying wines in our portfolio. From the floral Barbera to the tensest Nebbiolos, Bruno Giacosa’s wines are an incredible delight to discover.
