The team at Elvio Cogno has produced a very impressive wine from the Barbaresco appellation. The 2014 Barbaresco Bordini is a thickly saturated and rich expression that flows forth with pretty aromatic intensity and a velvety texture. The wine is not immediately obvious. It opens slowly, keeping your attention all the while, with cherry and blackberry soon followed by spice, red rose and a bright touch of freshly chopped mint. This Barbaresco is centered and firm with a tight tannic structure and fresh acidity at the back.

Offers aromas and flavors of cherry, flowers, leather and spice, with earthy, chewy tannins and an overall grainy profile. Stays long on the finish. Features a sweet core and will be fine with time. Best from 2020 through 2035. 125 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbaresco Select to Add
