Riserva

Summer was warm rather than hot, and harvest came very late - from 19-28 October at Borgogno - but it was extremely abundant. The 2004 Riserva was the first wine Farinetti bottled when he took over in 2010. He was initially bothered by high volatile acidity but says that by its tenth year the wine had resolved itself. Aromas are lifted, though not excessively so, and it's just starting to develop some mocha, smoke and balsamic nuances. It's not particularly dense but is very succulent and lively, with tannins sneaking up on the finish. The finish lingers with notes of dried rose, redcurrant and wet earth.
