Note di degustazione
The 2011 Barbaresco Bric Turot offers a two-step approach with dark fruit and spice that are well balanced against each other. The heat and extra concentration that is inherent to this vintage is well integrated within the freshness and fruity disposition of the Nebbiolo grape at hand. This Barbaresco exhibits a slow evolution and a strong inner fabric that should hold it steady over the next ten years.

Dark red cherries, plums, spices, new leather, smoke and licorice all take shape in the 2011 Barbaresco Bric Turot. Pliant, expressive and ripe in the glass, the 2011 offers good up-front richness and enough depth to drink well for another decade or so. A firm spine of tannin runs through the Bric Turot, giving the wine much of its energy and persistence.
Barbaresco. Just mid ruby with a pale orange-tinged rim. Quite stalky and closed on the nose and a little resiny (oak?). Not open on the palate either, and with acidity that is a little tart. Ends a little dry and hard. (WS)
(mostly aged in big barrels): Bright medium red. Lovely elegant perfume of raspberry, strawberry, rose petal, brown spices and minerals. Sweet and fine-grained, with an enticing minty medicinal reserve to its red fruit, menthol and floral flavors. Much broader on the back end than the normale, finishing with a fine dusting of tannins and lovely lift and perfume. A very pretty, distinctly calcaire wine that reminded me of Burgundy.
