NV Vino da Tavola Riservato Agli Amica, Giovanni Scanavino
If this is what Giovanni bottled for his friends, I would love to be one. I´m guessing a blend of Barbera and Nebbiolo, possibly 70/30%, but I will never know. Possibly from the 70´s.
The nose is deep and luscious with notes of dried raspberries, plums, old asphalt, bonfire smoke and lots of undergrowth. A very fine dried up sweetness to the fruit. Didn´t budge in a open bottle to the next day.
The taste is nicely structured and dry with notes of dried up raspberries jam, gravel, fir wood and dried herbs. Medium long finish. On the palate it looses some momentum on day two. Came in a mixed case and I hade zero exceptations.
87p (tasted 2024/06)
