Barbaresco Faset

Medium

Cork

Longtime landowners in the sub-district of Faset, the Culasso family only recently started making wine commercially. After taking back vineyards from rental contracts in 2000, Piercarlo and his children launched their label with the 2017 vintage. The 2022 possesses an intriguing duality of maturity and liveliness. Profuse spice and potpourri aromas lead. There is a buoyancy and brightness on the palate, and rosehip tea and hibiscus accents are tucked in. While softened around the edges, the tannins sport sufficient grip and chew for another eight years. This is an estate to watch.
