The Cocito 2009 Barbaresco Riserva Baluchin is a slightly softer and fruitier expression of Nebbiolo compared to the more linear 2008 vintage of the same wine. This Riserva shows abundant aromas of red fruit, pressed rose, cola, licorice, tar and tilled earth. The presentation is smooth, rich and enduring. Stylistically speaking, this is an opulent and generous expression of Nebbiolo.
