“The 2020 Nebbiolo d'Alba Bricco Barone is laced with macerated cherry, spice, tobacco, incense, licorice and dried herbs. Readers will find a pretty potent, deep Nebbiolo d'Alba with more than enough structure to drink well for at least a handful of years. The 2020 is maybe just a touch rustic in its tannins, but nevertheless overdelivers big time. Quite simply, this puts a number of Barolos and Barbarescos to shame.”
