Barolo Bricco Fiasco 2021

- 95 points -

From vines planted in the 1930s, this Bricco Fiasco bottling was first produced in 1978, and in 2021, the family started experimenting with fermentation in wood. Fifth-generation Lorenzo Scavino explains that this has given greater colour stability as well as richer, more complex aromas. A spicy, balsamic introduction of mint and pepper makes way for lifted fragrances of rose and citrus. Lip smacking red summer berries are swathed in sandy tannins. This is spunky and well-structured. A mineral tanginess adds dimension, as does the blood orange finale.
