The 2008 Barolo Giachini offers up freshly cut flowers, dark cherries, tar, French oak, minerals and mint. It possesses lovely aromatic complexity and the utter refinement that is the signature of the year. Sweet, silky tannins frame the polished finish. This is a highly representative wine from one of La Morra-'s great vineyards. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026. Various American importers, including: Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel.

The 2007 Barolo Giachini opens with a beguiling, captivating bouquet redolent of tar, smoke, French oak and wild cherries, all of which come together in the finely-knit voice that is unique to this La Morra vineyard. The Giachini stands out for its exceptional length, finely nuanced fruit and lovely overall balance. Hints of Pinot linger on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2027. Proprietor Giuliano Corino has a stunning set of 2007 Baroli on his hands. The wines capture the ripe, open style of the vintage while preserving considerable freshness, aromatic complexity and structure. These are wonderfully complete Baroli that merit serious consideration. I expect most of the wines will drink well with a minium of cellaring, and continue to develop complexity with further time in bottle.
