well-integrated tannin

complex and lingering finale

A deft touch of wood sets off the earthy and mildly sauvage-inflected aromas that consist mainly of plum liqueur though like the Aux Réas there is a hint of volatile acidity lurking in the background

one of the latest on record

This should age effortlessly and I would expect the minerality to develop even more with age

Luigi Giordano, Barbaresco Asili other_regions_australia well-integrated tanninApproachable out of the gate, the 2021 Barbaresco Asili has a more floral and strawberry noted profile, with a touch of licorice. Approachable on the palate as well, it has ripe tannins and a clean finish. I love where this is right now, and it should do well over the next 6 8 years.
