2008 Elvio Cogno Barolo Bricco Pernice
ITALY / PIEDMONT / NOVELLO
International Wine Cellar | Rating: 91
(from the best part of Ravera): Good deep red. Decadent aromas of strawberry, musky leather, chocolate and earth; less fruity than the 2009 Ravera. Sweet and serious in the mouth, with a silky quality to its candied red fruit and leather flavors, but quite not the same impression of lift or energy as the 2009 Ravera. Finishes with slightly dry, building tannins.Author: Stephen TanzerIssue: November/December 2013Wine Spectator | Rating: 92
A cherry- and leather-flavored red, with accents of briar, tobacco and spice. With air, this becomes rich and balanced, showing lightly astringent tannins on the finish. Vibrant and long, but needs a little time.Author: Bruce Sanderson
