Pecchenino Barolo San Giuseppe 2015 DOCG (JS 93,WA 92)

James Suckling 93 points.
Strong notes of fresh herbs, leaves and red flowers with bright strawberries and wild raspberries. The palate has a smoothly succulent and juicy feel with a bright, brisk and assertive core of juicy red-fruit flavuor. Drink or hold. JS.

Wine Advocate 92 points.
The fruit for the San Giuseppe line from Pecchenino comes exclusively from the vineyards of Le Coste, in the village of Barolo. The 2015 Barolo San Giuseppe opens to a generous and accessible style with solid varietal purity. This cru shows soft contours at the edges that work toward the general accessibility of the wine but don't take away from the sharpness and focus of the bouquet. Pair it with the famous "plin" ravioli of Piedmont, filled with beef or pork. ML Jun 2019
