Giovanni Manzone Barolo Bricat 2017
Collectors! Piedmont cognoscenti...lovers of all things Barolo, have we got a doozy today! 94 POINT, single-vineyard brilliance from our friends at Manzone (man, we miss them!!!), all at our usual mind-bending, reality-distorting pricing – truly astounding for a wine at this level!!
*** If only we got more! Sellout alert today! ***
I can't get enough Cru Barolo, in general, but MANZONE!! One of the rockstars of the Monforte d’Alba and a looooooooong time Last Bottle mega-fave. This 94-POINTER will grace your cellar for DECADES, if you can hold off – serious, fine, ultra-pure Barolo….dang...stop it!! The Bricat parcel is a relative newcomer to the Manzone family. The one-hectare parcel borders their revered Gramolere vineyard and was owned by their neighbor Gigi Bricat until his death in the mid-90s. The Manzone family took on the vineyard and have been making this single plot as a standalone wine ever since. They revere the site for its production of soulful, complex, and elegantly powerful wines…just. Like. THIS! Utterly compelling at our price.
These 2017s from Manzone are simply jaw-dropping – you all have heard us squawk on about the 2016 vintage (rightfully so,) but this release scored EVEN HIGHER! The balance is just superb – every sip gives you something different, something unexpected…pomegranate tea, dried cherry, sweet black cherry, floral rose petals, and inky minerals with barely there hints of smoky wood, incense, and a crazy long, uber-complex finish – all without being heavy. It’s Manzone’s most elegant and approachable Barolo…and man! Downright sexy is the best way to describe it! Just wonderful integration and harmony. Harmony! That’s the ticket!!
But as usual with this wine, very little to go around...so first come, first served!
All offers this week will unlock FREE ground shipping on 2+ bottles. We’ll compile the week’s orders, and ship ‘em out your way beginning Tuesday 11/28…so you can build a case (or three) of glorious Last Bottle vino! Please allow a little extra time!
** FYI to Alaska and Hawaii: your shipping costs will be calculated by order volume at the end of the week.
