Merchant's description

The Barolo Coste & Bricco from Ascheri 2016 is a Barolo red wine that delivers a fruit-forward interpretation of the Nebbiolo grape in this celebrated vintage. It opens with aromas of dried cherries and blackberries with an undercurrent of spice tar and leather. Made for the medium-to-long term, the dark and solid character is supported by a structure of firm integrated tannins which will ultimately yield a classically elegant result.
