Barbaresco Asili

Medium

Cork

The Giacosa family has owned a tiny plot on the hill of Asili since 1964, however, they only started bottling it separately in 2018. The 2023 is a beguiling rendition of this renowned site. Heady violet and hibiscus scents float around background notes of brushwood and juniper. There is wonderful depth of raspberry and cranberry. Medium to light in frame but sturdy, tannins provide a decisive chalky dryness. Remains tidy and polished.
