Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Asili 2007 Barbaresco Piedmont 750ml/Btl 6/case

Description

Antonio Galloni: The 2007 Barbaresco Asili is a striking, elegant
wine. Sweet roses, minerals, flowers, menthol and minerals emerge
from this firm yet intensely perfumed Barbaresco. The wine reveals
gorgeous weight and textural richness in a firm style that requires
patience. Beginning with the 2007 vintage, the vineyards
delimitations in Barbaresco have been re-drawn. As a result,
Giacosa's parcel in Rabaja is now considered part of Asili, which
means there will be no more Barbaresco Rabaja from Bruno Giacosa
after 2005. In 2007, the white label Asili is roughly 80% juice
from the old 'Rabaja' parcel and 20% Asili from the vines Giacosa
has always used for his Asili. Curiously, the 2007 Asili is a very
soft wine, considering it is made mostly from vines that informed
such majestic Rabajas as the 2001 and 2004.
