Wine.com : « Red Wine by Elvio Cogno from Piedmont, Italy. Barolo Ravera is produced with the grapes of the most important cru in Novello, a guarantee of fine aromas, sapid flavour and great complexity. The mainly calcareous soil of this historical vineyard adds elegance and structure to the wine, making it ideal for ageing. Only a few great wines possess its capacity to develop successfully in the course of time. Austere and severe in its early years, Barolo Ravera loses none of its typicality with the passing of the years: on the contrary, it improves all the time. Careful selection in the vineyard and relatively long fermentation help to heighten the characteristics of the grapes, which express themselves to the full after ageing in the bottle. A unique testimonial for a prestigious terroir, a wine takes the typicality of the Langa hills to the top in terms of quality. Brilliant garnet-red in colour with orange highlights. Firm, elegant and potent on the nose, it has scents of dog rose, mint and tobacco, scents which meld in the course of time into spice, coffee, liquorice, truffle, leather and minerals. A full-bodied, rounded bouquet of great structure and balance, redolent of plum jam and withered brambles. The persistent chocolaty aftertaste is harmonious and enticing. Over the years it gradually refines its characteristics to achieve classic elegance and composure. Goes well with braised meats, stewed game, roasts and mature cheeses such as pecorino and Parmigiano Reggiano. »

Wine.com : « Red Wine by Elvio Cogno from Piedmont, Italy. Barolo Bricco Pernice, named after a rock on which courting partridges build their nests, is the very latest wine from Cogno. The fruit of years and years of hard work, it is a desire that has come true. A project - a wine from the finest vineyard in Novello, in the most historic part of the Ravera cru, where the exceptional microclimate makes for superb Barolo - dreamt of by Elvio and achieved by Valter. Barolo Bricco Pernice is the latest chapter in a story - Elvio Cogno's - that began in La Morra. An expression of all the technical and stylistic precepts of the maestro himself, it fully deserves its place in the 'Riserva di Elvio'. A peculiar characteristic of Barolo Bricco Pernice is its enveloping softness, capable at once of revealing all the allure and potency of Bricco Ravera. Ruby to garnet red in colour. Intense notes of violet accompanied by a hint of damp soil, ripe red fruit and subtle spiciness. Harmonious and well structured on the palate with incisive yet fine, soft tannins. Already elegant and alluring when young, its silkiness and, above all, its complexity allow it to age as only great wines know how. »

Wine.com : « Red Wine by Fontanafredda from Piedmont, Italy. Garnet-red with ruby highlights that take on a slightly orange tone over time, it has a clear-cut, intense nose with overtones of vanilla, spices, withered roses and underbrush: its taste is dry, but soft, full-bodied, velvety and well-balanced, and is very long-lasting. »
