2004 Barbaresco,'Vigna Erte', Bricco di Neive, Cigliuti

A more than worthy successor to Cigliuti family's excellent 2001 vintage, the single-vineyard Vigna Erte is made in a very traditional fashion and aged for 25 months in large slavonian botte, so allowing the sweet rich strawberry fruit and tea aromas, as well as lush, pacy mulberry flavours framed by cool limestone minerality to seduce the senses.
(David Berry-Green - BBR Buyer)

Cigliuti is an estate that doesn’t seem to get much attention these days. To be sure, these are not flashy, obvious wines, yet for the most part they deliver plenty of enjoyment and pleasure. The estate’s 2004 Barbaresco Erte is a fine effort. This mid-weight offering shows excellent concentration and depth in its dark red fruit, menthol, minerals, flowers and sweet herbs.
