Bruno Giacosa Barolo Vigna Croera di La Morra 2004 Barolo Piedmont 750ml/Btl 6/case

Description

Antonio Galloni: The 2004 Barolo Vigna Croera reveals pretty
aromatics and notes of smoke, tar, roses, herbs and the small red
fruits that are characteristic of the wines of La Morra. Made in a
medium-bodied, delicate style it possesses a graceful, feminine
personality and finessed tannins. Even though the wine continued to
gain weight in the glass I noted that it was less expressive than
when I tasted it from barrel in April 2007. The Croera is made from
a high altitude plot in the Serradenari district of La Morra. This
site has never been particularly well regarded for Nebbiolo.
Long-time oenologist Dante Scaglione told me he expects the vines
to only yield top-flight Barolo in truly great vintages. There will
be no 2005 or 2006. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020.
