Riserva

The 2021 vintage marks a new direction at Montaribaldi, as all their MGA Barbaresco will now be declared as Riserva under a ‘Special Edition’ line. The estate’s first-ever Marcarini bottling comes from a plot planted in 1985, and it is a convincing effort. Intense florals meld with savoury earth and mineral elements, and an almost briny accent. Dense and replete with layers of seductive, ripe dark cherry and leather, its fluent tannins cooperate suitably, building to a sturdy supporting backbone before the finish trails off with mint and mocha.
