UWS; A mixed set of wines (@ JB): Beautiful bouquet with dark berries and licorice. On the palate chocolate, sweet spices, autumn and rustic flavors, fresh acidity and beautiful, slightly sticky tannin which is a bit drying in the finish.

Wow. Def in my top 3 all time barbarescos. I've owned this for years and years and decided to open it now as was in perfect drinking window. This was fantastic. Still has years left in it but I like them when are still plenty of tannins left and this just had a stunning backbone of dried berries. Coated the entire mouth. Huge length. This wine should be served in a lesson about Nebbiolo. Stunning
