1990 Bruno Giacosa, Barbaresco, Gallina 1x75cl

Antonio Galloni 94

Giacosa s 1990 Barbaresco Gallina was another of the overachievers, with gorgeous fruit and a seamless, caressing personality. [Antonio Galloni, 01/08/2010]

The 1990 Barbareso Gallina is simply awesome. The wine boasts a seamless core of rich red fruits in a soft, generous style. This opulent Barbaresco possesses impeccable balance and tons of class. Floral notes intermingled with bright red fruits provide lift on the finish, adding lovely balance to the dense fruit. This is the most approachable of Giacosa’s 1990s but has plenty of stuffing to last another twenty years. The 1978 is still going strong. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025.
