The 2020 Barolo Bric Del Fiasc is jeweled red in color and has a great nose of cherry liqueur, violets, lavender, a touch of blueberry, sweet herbs, sweet earth, and balsamic, but it's pure and fresh. Medium to full-bodied, it has a plush, velvety texture and lovely richness without feeling heavy, and it offers sweet tannins, notes of tea leaf, and a rounder feel, with a long finish. Drink 2026-2046.

Intriguing notes of blueberries and violets dance on the nose, intertwined with captivating floral aromas of lavender and rose petals, creating a charming and pretty bouquet. The palate follows suit, revealing a harmonious blend of delicate blackberry and plum flavors, complemented by a touch of sage and thyme. Subtle hints of forest floor, dried leaves, and damp earth add depth and complexity to this Barolo. Drink 2026 - 2045.

The 2020 Barolo Bric del Fiasc is a powerful, tannic wine. Then again, it is Bric del Fiasc. Iron, dried herbs, white pepper, geranium, orange peel and red-toned fruit are all delineated, framed by sinewy, nervous tannins that give the wine its shape. This driving, taut Barolo will need at least a few years to hit its stride. It's a bit compacted today.
