Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Aslli Riserva 2020
DOZEN: $19,278.00 or $1,606.50 each
Gorgeous perfumes of flowers and dark fruit with orange peel. Full-bodied with plenty of fruit and firm and integrated tannins. Thick silky texture. Fresh in the finish. It goes on for minutes. (98) JAMES SUCKLING
Good deep red. Brooding aromas and flavours of ripe red cherry, blood orange, star anise, camphor and sweet spices. At once multilayered and complex, with polished if noteworthy tannins providing backbone and guaranteeing a long and graceful evolution over time. And this will need plenty of it in a good cellar, in order to showcase all it has to offer. (96+) IAN D'AGATA
Bottled in 2022, the Asili Riserva slowly divulges plum blossoms, cherry, crushed allspice and a touch of incense. The palate is effortlessly balanced with the silkiest mouthfeel and extraordinary freshness. I love the dark earthiness that emerges with a faint touch of tar. The tannins are tightly knit, demonstrating an elegance that will stand the test of time. Like several of her peers, Bruna Giacosa compares 2020 to 2000, describing the pair as more elegant than the structured vintages of 2021 and 2001 which have their own resemblance. She voices her preference for the former duo. MICHAELA MORRIS, decanter
