Barbaresco

The estate’s two Barbaresco come from neighbouring sites with exposure being the key difference. The ‘classic’ bottling hails from the cooler of the duo. Vinification is similar though this sees slightly less time in wood. With bright spicy exuberance, the nose rings out with coriander, pepper and rose. Smooth in flow with a deep-seated juiciness of sour red cherry and refined tannins, with a savoury, almost saline finish. Very drinkable and satisfying now.
