ACCOLADE RESULTS

2016 Bruno Giacosa Barolo DOCG
James Suckling, James Suckling, August 2020
“The berry and tar character is already coming through clearly here. It shows readiness and focus. Full-bodied with firm, silky tannins and attractive orange-peel and spice notes, turning to flowers. Chewy, yet polished and pretty. This comes from the young vineyards on the estate. Drinkable now, but better after 2022.”

2016 Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Asili Riserva
Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, January 2021
“This is rich and dense, yet also racy, evoking cherry, plum, tar and eucalyptus flavors, with a thread of mineral underscoring it all. Shows fine length and intensity, and there's ample fruit to match the spine of tannins, but this just needs time. Best from 2025 through 2045. 185 cases imported.”

2015 Bruno Giacosa Barolo Falletto Vigna Le Rocche
Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, June 2019
“It takes a few seconds to access the core of fruit in this taut, sinewy red, but there is a beam of pure cherry, accented by rose, wild juniper, thyme and licorice flavors. This turns elegant and supple in the end, with terrific complexity, harmony and minerally length. Best from 2023 through 2046. From Italy”
