Just a really solid bottle of aged Barbaresco. Perfect drinking window with fruit and secondary characteristics. Paired with short rib ragu and stood up to the richness. 92-93.

Moderately light red colour. Smell of must and damp earth. Mushroom and earthy flavours. Body is quite thin. Wine is dry and flavours dissipate quite quickly.

Very clear almost watery clarity, but nice light garnet color. Plum nose, lots of raspberry flavor here with a tannic finish. Very smooth texture. Quite drinkable and enjoyable, no harsh notes, it is just not something I would hunt for but would buy again if I see it.

A random Nebbiolo note on a Thursday night. The nose is vaguely pleasant, although nothing really stands out. I don't have any familiarity with this producer, but if I had to guess, this comes off as a modernist take on Barbaresco - quite different than, say, a Produttori. But it does display Nebbiolo typicity, and while I can't say that I would feel compelled to track this down again, I have no problem drinking it tonight.

Okay, if somewhat short of memorable. Maybe it will grow on me with some air & food.
