Ruby red. Bouquet has hints of raspberries and dried roses
Taste is fresh and aromatic, with notes of ripe peaches. Powerful and persistent finish.
Vinous
- v94
Medium red with a trace of amber at the edge. Sour cherry, minerals and an exotic whiff of peach on the reticent nose; smells denser and darker than the Starderi. Lush but closed in the mouth, with energetic minerality framing the dark berry flavors. The very long, lively finish coats the teeth with fine-grained tannins. Impressive.
Wine Spectator
- ws93
Fresh and aromatic, exhibiting floral, berry, eucalyptus and spice flavors before the tough tannins take over. Powerful and muscular, this closes down on the finish. The most backward of the three Barbaresco crus, and the one that offers the most potential. Best from 2016 through 2028.
