This wine is excellent. I could not take my nose out of the glass. So complex, with beautiful violet and rose, as well as underbrush, tar, red fuit and all sorts of other things. So much depth to this wine. Still has considerable structure, but the fruit is definitely there to guarantee years of evolution. A very pleasant surprise.

Wow! No professional reviews on this, and yes it was my first Giacosa (could be an expensive habit) but this went through so many changes in the glass. Smelled just like a coconut macaroon at one point and straight tar the next day.
