Description / Reviews
"Nebbiolo in limestone soil, rich in calcium with sandy veins, aged for 20 months in 50 hectolitre oak casks. Warm, medium body vintage, dark red fruit and spicy flavours with a balanced tannic finish." - Produttori del Barbaresco, Winemaker
"Violet, rose and dried herb scents over black cherry, raspberry and a touch of tar. Medium-bodied yet firm on the palate, its succulent red fruits are framed by fine tannins and fresh acidity. The clean and persistent finish shows floral, red-fruit and mineral nuances." - 94 Points, Lauren Mowery, Decanter
"The 2022 Barbaresco is a pretty rich, heady wine. Dark cherry/plum fruit, cloves, licorice and mocha build as the 2022 shows off its considerable depth. This is one of the few 2022s that is quite resonant texturally. The aromatics could be more lifted and the tannins could use a bit more polish, but those qualities were next to impossible to come by in 2022. The inclusion of some juice from Riserva lots is a great help. All things considered, this is a stellar showing." - 93 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
"Cherry, dried figs, peanuts, spice, mint and sage, a little aniseed and dried flower perfume. It’s medium-bodied, cherry and red fruit, poached strawberry with a little orange peel bite, a chamois-like grip to tannin, kind of open-weave and a little grainy, it has a juiciness and succulence, but turns a little breathy in alcohol on its savoury finish of good length. It’s not a great PdB, but it’s still a very good wine." - 92 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
