The notes on this wine are hard to comprehend. The super low numbers are incomprehensible. This wine is stellar. It is not the best bricco rocche ever, but it is excellent. It has the classic 2008 qualities, good, approachable but clean fruit, with just enough structure to carry the wine. 2008 is on the elegant side, which I love, but this wine has enough heft, it’s not boring. Great.

Nice bricking on the edges, it's starting to round into shape, good tangy red/black fruit, tannins, tea, some early tertiary flavors and it is light on the oak for the producer, with a nice finish. This is an excellent Langhe that is drinking well.
