Barbaresco

Full

Cork

Smoky woodland, balsamic and mineral characters dominate the nose which is all on the root aromas. Dried cherry fruit introduces a savoury, dense, vibrant palate, with large tannins which are sweet and ripe. Austere, grainy finish with a bit of sterness at the moment, yet a good, sweet liquorice aftertaste. The grapes for this Barbaresco 'village' wine come from a vineyard with southwest to southeast exposition. The wine ages in 20- to 45-hectolitre French oak barrels.
