A must-try, the nose bursts with violet, candied raspberry and sweet spice. Pure and crunchy, it fills the mouth with tart and tangy red berries. The tannins feel graciously soft on the entry then build with chalky texture. Joyful and energetic, it offers a rousing glimpse into Elena Penna and Luca Currado’s brand new family estate. A cool site within the township Monforte d’Alba but outside the Barolo confines, Bricco Lago is made with 100% whole berries to help curb alcohol levels. 92 points. Decanter.
