Barbaresco Giacone

Oh wow, this bottle has evolved into something utterly beautiful over the last two years. Night flowers, dried cherries, wet wood, mushrooms, wild strawberries - perfumed and complex. Still a bit tight yet so approachable. Poof, and the wine is gone.

While I am not as impressed as I was a few months ago during a blind tasting, I still find this wine beautiful, delicious, and sophisticated. A perfumed bouquet combined with some rustic charm makes a perfect match. Notes of cherry, wet wood, damp earth, mushrooms, wild strawberries, and red flowers. Elegant yet powerful, thanks to green tannins. Relatively fresh with neat fruit and a lengthy aftertaste.

Great value if you do not include delivery to Ukraine.

This wine captivates with a charming and slightly perfumed bouquet, where cherry, wet wood, wet earth, mushrooms, wild strawberries, raw meat and an abundance of red flowers blend harmoniously. It strikes an elegant yet powerful stance, demonstrating the careful balance between strength and finesse. The palate is round and well-balanced, supported by good acidity and ripe fruit, making it exceptionally juicy. This wine is truly beautiful, embodying elegance, complexity, and a vibrant expression of its character, making it a delightful experience.

I can't wait to get a few bottles of this wine to enjoy it in a more focused and relaxed environment.
