Tasting notes
The 1997 Barbaresco Bricco Asili-Faset's exquisite perfume offers aromas of ginger, cedar, cigar box, and cherry liqueur. Excellent concentration, medium to full body, undeniable elegance, soft tannin, and copious glycerin result in a seductive wine to enjoy over the next 12-15 years.

This wine possesses lots of glycerin, low acidity, and a forward, unreal, atypical lushness and opulence. The exotic 1997 Barbaresco Faset offers an explosive nose of red and black fruits, dried herbs, roasted nuts, and toasty oak. Already delicious and impossible to resist, this voluptuously-textured, dense, layered, fruit-driven offering is an undeniably compelling Barbaresco to enjoy during its first 10-15 years of life.

Medium red. Cool aromas of redcurrant, mocha and tobacco. Rich, supple and harmonious; layered and sweet. Finishes with lovely length and smooth, ripe tannins.
