    Azelia, Barolo, Bricco Fiasco, 2004

    Initially a touch closed and reticent on the nose, however this explodes to life on the palate, bursting with intense damson, plum and berry flavours, shades of sweet spice and smoky oak, long, serious, sturdy and extremely classy.

    The 2013 Barolo Bricco Fiasco is one of the most gracious and delicate wines I have ever tasted from this site. Sweet red cherry, kirsch, mint, cranberry and white pepper give the 2013 its distinctive high-toned personality. Moreover, the firm, searing tannins that are so typical of this site are remarkably polished. Readers should expect an aromatic, perfumed Barolo built on grace more than power. The Bricco Fiasco was aged in French oak barrels, with about 10% new wood.
