Giacomo Borgogno & Figli Barolo DOCG 2018

Critical Acclaim: 93 pts Decanter; 93 pts James Suckling. 

Winemaker's Tasting Notes: Intense garnet red color with orange reflections. Ethereal, persistent, intense “goudron” perfume. Dry, harmonious, velvety, full-bodied, austere and generous taste.

"Another exception to the otherwise dilute character of Barolo 2018 at village level, most likely favoured by a blend from several selections. Liquorice and coffee grounds, leafy lightness and red currants mingle. The palate is graceful with a soft attack, ripe tannins, good citrus characters and crisp freshness - an overall crunchy style. Dusty yet not bitter on the finish."- Decanter. 

"Tightly packed, ripe red fruit and nutty spice on the nose. Full-bodied with the same compact character on the palate. The tannins are medium-grained and provide a good framework to the spicy fruit. This is all tightly packed. Give it a few years to unwind. Drink from 2024."- James Suckling. 

Varietal: Nebbiolo.
