2013 | Ascheri | Barolo Bricco e Coste (Double Magnum)

Attractive aromas of blackberry, mushroom and rose petal follow through to a medium to full body, medium chewy tannins and a tangy aftertaste.

Reviews:

• Vinous: Violet, red berry, dark spice and a whiff of camphor come together on this vibrant red. The elegant savory palate doles out juicy red cherry, crushed raspberry, baking spice and truffle while lithe tannins provide elegant support. It's balanced, with fresh acidity. Already approachable, it also offers good midterm aging. Drink through 2023.

• James Suckling: Attractive aromas of blackberry, mushroom and rose petal follow through to a medium to full body, medium chewy tannins and a tangy aftertaste. Lively and delicious.

Producer Information

The Giacomo Ascheri Cellars originated in the early 19th Century in La Morra, a picturesque little hilltop town founded in the 12th Century. Early on, the family developed a vine cultivation method considered innovative for its time. In 1880, they moved the winery to the nearby town of Bra, a more convenient distribution location. Both Bra and La Morra are in the Langhe area of northern Italy’s Piedmont region, about 60 Km south of Turin. This area produces some of Italy’s best wines. Matteo Ascheri and his son, Giuseppe, subscribe to the winemaking philosophy of non-intervention, using technology in moderation and aging the wine in large casks. Their goal is to capture the most faithful expression of the vineyard, with respect to the wine’s elegance, finesse, natural concentration, and balance.
