Lot #98. Bruno Giacosa Barbaresco Riserva Santo Stefano di Nieve 1982

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 99 AG.
"Two 1982s from Bruno Giacosa are an unexpected but very welcome surprise. I have always adored this vintage. Both wines more than live up to my expectations. I am also quite surprised by how translucently beautiful the wines are. The 1982 Barbaresco Santo Stefano Riserva simply has it all. Deep, pliant and explosive, the SSR is also quite bit fresher than the Rionda. Here too, the flavors pack considerable brightness, with plenty of blood orange, cranberry, dark cherry and tobacco notes. Quite simply, this is a great, great bottle of the 1982 SSR. What a way to end the night." Vinous, May 2016
Notes: Very top shoulder, scuffed and lightly bin soiled label, #10058.
