Cascina Chicco

Paolo Basso

Tasting: Barolo 2009

Intense nose of liquorice, anise, blackcurrant and strawberries. Powerful body, rich, intense and compact personality with young tannins.

Ian D'Agata

Tasting: Barolo 2009

Clean and fresh with marzipan, red cherry and liquorice, finishing with spicy apricot jam and orange peel notes. Lovely.

Michael Garner

Tasting: Barolo 2009

Heavy and a little flat. Bovril. Full and alcoholic but rustic and clumsy.
