2010 Gigi Bianco Barbaresco Ovello

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Thursday, April 30, 2020 - PnP, then drunk over three evenings, no TN, from memory.
The cork smelled clean, but strange enough, the wine in the glass gave the impression of being a bit corked. But this dissipated with air, when in the glass: the pour from the bottle had it till the end. The wine needed air and gave its best on day two, when the nose was still fresh (after some time in the glass) and its expression on the palate was at its best: intense and very peculiar aromatics, juicy, strong tannins but well integrated. A wine of character, not very polished, a bit wild and clearly made in the traditional way. Would love to see how this evolves in the next 10 years.
