Ascheri 2016 Coste & Bricco (Barolo)
Tilled earth, new leather and baked plum aromas mix with whiffs of pressed purple flowers on this full-bodied red. Reflecting the nose, the earthy, robust palate features dried black cherry, stewed prune, clove and tobacco alongside tightly knit, close-grained tannins. Drink 2024–2032. Kerin O’Keefe
