Tasting Notes

This is a very elegant and delicately structured wine with an expansive bouquet of redcurrants and wild berries intermingled with aromatic notes of rose petals and delicate sweet citrus fruits. The palate reveals lovely depth of pure red fruit with darker layers coming to the fore as the wine builds in breadth and complexity. Silky textures and an energetic freshness with a dark mineral quality in the background are perfectly balanced. Beautifully harmonious and refined, this wine will age magnificently for twenty years or more. Drink from 2018 ? 2030

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.
