Reviews
Decanter 98
The most impressive of three excellent single-vineyard Borgogno wines being released solely through negociants on the Place. From the Annunziata MGA, this offers a nose full of fennel seeds, cherries and plums, lavender, white chocolate and almost Turkish Delight reflections. Smells amazing. Sappy and alive, but wow the texture and depth are off the charts, immediately filling and round, this comes in waves with bright, zingy fresh fruit, high acidity, juicy tannins with herbal edges and soft spices towards the finish. Complex, amazingly vibrant and so captivating. Coffee, toasted honey, sour cherries, gingerbread and rosemary. An incredible wine that is still compact and relatively tight, the tannins are at the fore presenting quite a firm structure, but this also has delicacy and elegance shining through. I could drink this all day long.

James Suckling 94
A complex and vibrant Barolo with aromas of oak bark, smoke, dark fruit like prunes, truffles, licorice and earth. Full-bodied with freshness and thick, dusty tannins. It's still austere, yet balanced by lush fruit.
