Consistent with 2017’s reputation as an early-drinking vintage. Open for business. Bright fruit, good lift, tannins managable. Will reward additional cellaring but no guilt for opening now.

Lighter-bodied than expected, with bright strawberries in front leading into the classic tar & earth nebbiolo core and then a good finish on acidity, the tannins in the background. Delicious.

The nose opens up a bit after two hours....still quite tannic and sour on the palate - a bit in-between at the moment, perhaps in need of a year or two still.

Definitely in a more modern style, but a very nice barbaresco.
