Elvio Cogno Barbaresco Bordini DOCG – 2016 – The Tasting Panel – 92 Points
92 points
Named for the cru in the village of Neive where the grapes are grown on 30-year-old vines, this 100% Nebbiolo di Barbaresco fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeast before it was aged for 15 months in Slavonian oak barrels and aged for six months in bottle. Aromas of stewed tomato, tobacco, and earth lead to flavors of cinnamon, cherry, orange rind, and salted blueberry. It’s youthful but so food-friendly.
