Cogno’s 2004 Barolo (aged in cask) is particularly beautiful in this vintage. Sweet, ripe tannins frame a core of perfumed red cherries, flowers, spices, smoke and earthiness as this soft-textured, feminine Barolo opens up un the glass. The wine offers terrific persistence as well as harmony. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2019.
Cogno remains an under-the-radar source for delicious wines. This is an impressive line-up from top to bottom.
