Bruno Giacosa, Barbaresco Asili Riserva (Red Label) Vintage:2011 A complete wine with sizeA magnificent result for 2014, but then this is a legendary wine, a top bottling from a top estate. The nose is rich, juicy, and exuberant, with piquant raspberry aromas. It's undoubtedly rich and full bodied, and there's no lack of volume or concentration. The tannins are bold and fleshy, and the wine overall is surprisingly succulent and approachable. Very long, grainy finish.
