Description

Crushed violet petals, menthol, baking spices, tar and warm saddle leather frame the juicy dark cherries of this ’12 Barolo Cicala; its aromatics will pull you to the glass, but its structure suggests that better drinking awaits. Polished, fine-grained tannins stud the muscular body of the ’12 Barolo Cicala that offers the structure to age for years to come. A sweet inner perfume marked by licorice and herbs and a lasting finish complete the drinking experience. The second "cru" from Bussia Soprana, Cicala is the most fruit-driven, but also the most tannic and most age-worthy of the estate’s trio of single-vineyard Barolos. Crafted from grapes grown on vines between 40-45 years old, this wine spends 28 months in Slavonian oak casks before bottling. Let this Barolo cellar for a couple of years before drinking it for a decade or two.
