2016 La Bioca Aculei Barolo DOCG

“One of the finest cohorts of wines in this year’s DWWA was the magnificent collection of 2016 Barolo we had the chance to judge, and confining ourselves to just two wines in the Best of Show collection wasn’t easy. The first of these is dark, vivid, amply constituted and multi-dimensioned, with complex, close-woven aromas and a dense mesh of still-fruity flavours which ideally needs a year or two further to soften, though it is very approachable now. Look out for ample plum and pomegranate fruit, as well as Havana-leaf complexities in the finish. The way in which the tannins cling, densely and ripely, to those fruit flavours testifies both to 2016’s generosity and to skilled vinification – and bodes well for the future.”
