Barbaresco Santo Stefano 2008, Bruno Giacosa
£125.00
An iconic wine from one of Italy’s best winemakers. An amazing wine to delight lovers of Nebbiolo.
Made from Nebbiolo grapes grown on one of the most historic vineyards in Neive, the 2008 is elegant and complex with sweet plum and cassis aromas, intermingled with prunes, dried fruits and herbs. On the palate, ripe, soft fruit is balanced by fine tannins and delicate mineral notes. This is a beguiling and wonderfully expressive wine which opens up in the glass. Surprisingly attractive now, it will continue to develop over a long time.
This wine deserves a fine meal, venison, roast beef or a selection of strong hard cheeses.
