Azelia Barolo Bricco Fiasco 1.5L Magnum 2018

This single-vineyard Cru Barolo magnum presents a deep, intense garnet red color. The bouquet is highly complex and majestic, unfolding with rich aromas of ripe black cherries, dark plums, and liquorice, beautifully interlaced with elegant notes of tar, sweet spices, and toasted oak. On the palate, it exhibits a full-bodied, multi-layered structure of immense power and concentration, flawlessly balanced by a vibrant, integrated acidity and firm, noble tannins. The texture is velvety yet muscular, leading into an extraordinarily long, robust, and aristocratic finish. Presented in a 1.5-liter magnum bottle, it offers exceptional aging potential.

Food Pairing: Outstanding with slow-braised beef shanks, roasted game meats, rich truffle-infused dishes, and highly aged cheeses.

91 Points - James Suckling

"There’s a decent bead of red-berry fruit and some nut and citrus character. Medium-bodied palate with rather light tannin this year. It may expand with time. Try from 2023."
