Description
2020 Barolo, Bruno Giacosa
About the Winery: Bruno Giacosa is one of Piedmont’s most revered names, renowned for crafting Barolo and Barbaresco of remarkable purity, precision and longevity. Working with carefully selected vineyards in the Langhe, the estate combines meticulous vineyard work with traditional, large-cask ageing to highlight the character of Nebbiolo and its hillside terroirs. This Barolo draws on classic sites to deliver a wine that is both refined and powerful, true to the Giacosa style of elegance, balance and age-worthiness.
Grape Variety: 100% Nebbiolo
Appearance: Luminous garnet with ruby highlights and a fine, gradually fading rim, showing classic Barolo transparency and youthful intensity.
Aroma: Red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry layered with rose petal, violets, liquorice, sweet spice and hints of tar and dried herbs. Perfumed, lifted and finely detailed, with a subtle mineral edge.
Palate: Elegant yet firmly structured, with vibrant red fruit, chalky, finely grained tannins and bright acidity. Savoury notes of spice, tea leaf and earth emerge on the long, persistent finish, promising excellent development in bottle while remaining already harmonious and poised.
Body: Medium to full-bodied with refined power and layered texture.
Acidity: High, providing tension, lift and the framework for long-term ageing.
Cellaring Potential: Excellent—enjoy from early maturity or cellar 12 ::contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
