Red Wine by Cascina Bongiovanni from Piedmont, Italy. From select Nebbiolo fruit of one particular plot within the estate's finest vineyard. The grapes are left on the vines for several extra days after the regular Barolo is harvested, for even greater concentration. A gorgeously structured, velvety cru with the succulent fragrance of berries, fume, leather, cassis and mint.
critical acclaim:
"Great fruit on the nose, with blackberry, dark chocolate and fresh plum. Full and velvety-textured, with lots of fruit and ripe tannins. Long and beautiful. Very balanced. Impressive for the vintage. Best after 2012. 375 cases made"
