This parcel within the Basarin cru in Neive, planted on clay and sandstone soils, is particularly prized by the Giacosa family. 

The nose is enchanting, crystalline and floral, with raspberry fruit in the background. It's supple and graceful rather than powerful, yet the underlying tannins are ripe and give structure without robbing the wine of its lightness of touch. It has good acidity and length, showing the charm that should be part of the Barbaresco profile.
