Giacomo Bologna Braida 2021 'Bricco dell’ Uccellone', Barbera d’Asti DOCG, Piedmont, Italy

Rich and full bodied to the core, with stunning depth, the 2019 offers a beguiling range of black fruit, mocha, chocolate, grilled herbs, lavender and incense. There’s plenty of concentration and oak to support it, but without the excess of recent years.
