Tannins, frame and acidity in perfect balance. Amazing vibration in mouth.

Garnet color. Rustic nose of leather, very dark fruit, leaves, tar and mushroom. Very elegant palate with the same characteristics with a very long finish. Beautiful.

1990 Bruno Giacosa Asilia Riserva Barbaresco. Drank w B&ML M at The R Casual Fri dinner. Got better after a while open and in the glass. More light and thin than we anticipated. Not S dimensional as we had hoped. Still some fruit and red brick. Hasn't necessarily peaked yet, but should drink now/in the next couple years.
