The 2009 Barolo Giachini is a spectacular wine and probably the most immediately accessible of the bunch with ripe fruit, leather, tobacco and soft spice. It delivers ethereal tones of crushed granite, violet and white pepper for added complexity. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2030. Silvio Grasso offers an impressive collection of vineyard-designate Barolos in 2009. Importer: De Grazia Imports, Republic; MO; tel. (417) 732-1668

A floral aroma leads to cherry and berry flavors accented by tobacco and briar. This red is delicate despite the firm tannins, persistent and lingering on the finish with leather and spice notes. Best from 2016 through 2030. 200 cases made, 50 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
