Giacomo Borgogno & Figli
Barolo Riserva Speciale



A bright noise of light dried rises and soft cherry with an ouch of acidity. Lovely and fresh still. Lively and complex. Very good.

Meaty and savory. Dark blue fruit with good secondary notes. Hints of thyme and iron. The nose really draws you in. Great fruit. Good length and complexity with a hint of sherry on the finish

A really lovely nose. Piercing black and red cherry with subtle hints of violet and dried roses. A really soulful Barolo nose. On the palate a bit less exciting but really classy stuff.

Dark dried fig and plum. A bit more austere than the 47’s. Tar and dark wood. On the palate, saline and dense and dried at the edge.

A great nose. Madeira, figs, dried apricot. Great subtle mouthfeel with a complex, aged midpalate. With air hints of fresh rose and light cherry peer through. Very composed and improving in the glass. Very good

A lovely smoky dark dried plum with notes of sherry and dried apricot. Great texture and balance. Though the fruit is more to the brown, Madeira end of the spectrum it is Still remarkably fresh and polished. A soulful, fascinating wine.

Tar and dried flowers on the nose. Lovely resolved dried fruit. Some lifted floral notes with a sherried tang to the end of the midpalate. Great mouthfeel for its age. Good stuff- and really delicate notes coming through
