Barbaresco Asili Riserva Giacosa 2004
Barbaresco Asili Riserva Giacosa 2004 is a dry, full-bodied red from Nebbiolo (Barbaresco, Italy), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are firm and acidity very high; oak influence is some. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 22-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened. Good with beef stew, mushroom risotto, steak, lamb.

Barbaresco Asili Riserva Giacosa 2004 is a full-bodied Nebbiolo red wine produced in the Barbaresco appellation of Piedmont, Italy. Crafted from grapes sourced exclusively from the historic Asili vineyard, renowned for its calcareous clay soils, this wine embodies the region`s unique terroir. A pivotal figure in Barolo and Barbaresco winemaking, Bruno Giacosa oversaw the production until his passing in 2018. The 2004 vintage displays focused structure alongside complex aromas of dark fruit and subtle florals. It offers a profound expression of Nebbiolo, destined for extended cellaring.
