The 2014 Carlo Giacosa Narin Barbaresco is a classic, structured Nebbiolo showing intense floral (rose, violet), red fruit (cherry, raspberry), spice (cinnamon, clove, licorice), and earthy notes, praised for its power, elegance, and fine, assertive tannins that require significant time to soften, making it best enjoyed with food or after substantial aging (post-2024/2025) for optimal enjoyment. Montefico 2014: "wild berry, blue flower, forest floor and dark spice aromas" and "linear, savory palate" with "taut, refined tannins and vibrant acidity".
