Barbaresco Montefico

Medium

Cork

Riserva

Wedged between Ovello and Montestefano, the predominately south-facing Montefico MGA is typically finer-framed and less overtly powerful than those two, yet the surprisingly ample and vigorous 2021 almost turns that on its head. It is still as gorgeously fragrant as ever, showing damp earth, petrichor, mint and raspberry. The tannins are slightly angular but well-padded with crisp, luscious fruit, and there is a sense of effortless balance and controlled strength. A chalky undertow adds to the intrigue, giving penetrating mineral length.
