Sort By:

Braida di Giacomo Bologna 2007 Bricco dell'Uccellone Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)

Bricco dell’Uccellone is an historic wine that shaped the modern history of Barbera d’Asti and Piedmont in general. Aged 15 months in oak casks, the wine is bountiful and harmonious with aromas of cherry, blackberry and spice. There’s a bright splash of crisp fruit on the close. — M.L. (9/1/2010)

Braida di Giacomo Bologna 2007 Bricco della Bigotta Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)

Online Exclusive

Here’s a super-modern and thoroughly lovable style of Barbera with intense and complex notes of milk chocolate, big black berry spice and espresso coffee. This wine stands tall among a new school of Barbera producers who have opted for a soft and extracted interpretation of this otherwise thorny and acidic grape. — M.L. (9/1/2010)

Braida di Giacomo Bologna 2007 Montebruna Barbera (Barbera d'Asti)

Price $23

There are slightly toasted notes here of chestnut or almond followed by bitter berry fruit and dark chocolate. The wine is crisp, polished and clean in the mouth with a tart, bitter almond close. Pair it with creamy potatoes dauphinoise. — M.L. (9/1/2010)

Braida di Giacomo Bologna 2004 Vigna Senza Nome Moscato (Moscato d'Asti)

Price $16

Honey and peach fills the mouth and is backed by lemon blossom, mineral and chalky notes, apricot and a distant dairy smell that blows off after a few swirls. A pleasant touch of acidity at the rear keeps the wine’s floral freshness intact in the mouth. Imported by Vinifera Imports. — M.L. (12/15/2005)

Braida di Giacomo Bologna 2008 La Monella Barbera (Barbera del Monferrato)

Here’s a fresh, simple Barbera with a tiny touch of toasted almond that gives it slightly more complexity and intensity. The mouthfeel is lean and light with a short but satisfying finish. — M.L. (9/1/2010)
