If you appreciate high-quality Nebbiolo wines with a sense of place and a long aging trajectory, this is a fantastic choice. The unique terroir of the Asili vineyard (one of the best in Barbaresco) is offering a harmonious and elegant wine experience. While it’s enjoyable now, the 2009 vintage is still quite young and will continue to evolve beautifully over the next two decades.

Tasting Notes:This vintage presents a deep garnet hue and offers an aromatic profile rich with floral notes, sweet cherry, strawberry, and hints of anise and menthol. On the palate, it is rich and elegant, with a long, satisfying finish balanced by dusty tannins.

Serving & Food Pairing:Serve the 2009 Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Asili at 16-18°C in a large Bordeaux glass to allow its aromas to fully open. It pairs beautifully with rich, savoury dishes like truffle risotto, braised veal, or roasted lamb with rosemary. For a unique pairing, try it with wild boar ragu or slow-cooked duck with figs.

Bruno Giacosa is one of Piedmont’s most revered wineries, known for producing exceptional Barbaresco and Barolo wines.
