"Incandescent on the nose, showing amazing sensory quality in a dizzying alternation of floral and fruity traits. Red hibiscus flowers intertwine with notes of pink grapefruit, lime, white peaches, acacia, and mandarin peel, producing the iconic profile of a top player in a classic and certainly extraordinary vintage in Barolo, and in particular in Bricco Fiasco. On the palate, the wine is soft and enveloping with a silky, tannic matrix of indomitable beauty and perfect extraction. The finish illuminates from the center of the palate outward yet portrays a precise trajectory; pure, praiseworthy beauty and perfection of execution."
