Score: ✧✧✧✧✭ |
This Barbaresco shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuanced of garnet red,
moderate transparency. The nose reveals good personality with intense,
clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas which start with hints of
cherry and raspberry followed by aromas of rose, dried violet, lavender,
licorice, tobacco, cinnamon, vanilla and menthol. In the mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and appreciable crispness,
however well balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, good tannins,
agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of cherry and raspberry. A
well made wine. This Barbaresco ages for 15 months in cask.
