2008 Rizzi Barbaresco Pajoré

Nebbiolo more

4/22/2024 - mauropallido Likes this wine: 94 points

Grande Barbaresco in un'ottima fase di invecchiamento, già con belle terziarizzazioni dei sentori in bella evidenza. "Goudroneggia" davvero con grande eleganza. Un'ottima finestra per goderselo. (Fase matura che secondo me potrebbe durare anche per anni, poiché il vino è davvero in perfetta forma, non mi pare di notare decatimenti negativi, i tannini sono risolti ma ha ancora una bella spina acida). Un altro ottimo Barbaresco imbottigliato da Rizzi, e un'annata, il 2008, che a mio avviso è stata davvero eccellente per i Barbaresco.

Lots of cherries, red fruit and some oak notes. It's a rich and concentrated wine that is very food friendly.

Super floreale e fragrante, croccante di piccoli frutti rossi. Perfetto accompagnamento per il cibo, non troppo leggero, giocato sulla freschezza ma con quella marcia extra amaricante del tannino. Interpretazione ricca e appagante del classico Langhe nebbiolo, molto approcciaible ma al tempo stesso gratificante.

Sweet young Dolcetto. Suggests 2022 will be a good Barolo year. Really nice balanced fruit flavours. Drinking nicely. Not a keeper but will be around a few years.

Really disappointing. Smelled totally fine, a little darker color than usual for Barbaresco. Tasted like black olive brine, no other real flavors apparent.

Après avoir lu ici et là que 2017 était bon à boire en ce moment, je tente le coup sur cette bouteille. Je serai moins enthousiaste que Jonnytheneedle (avis précédent) même s'il s'agit d'un bon vin. Deux heures de carafe lui font le plus grand bien, et font ressortir une grande qualité de tannins, au grain particulièrement fin. Le profil aromatique manque encore de complexité et de caractère, mais on a un joli fruit. Ça se boit bien, c'est plutôt élégant, mais l'émotion n'est pas encore au rendez-vous. Peut-être dans 10 ans ?

Awesome wine - echo all of the other notes. Had with pizza and was the perfect combo.

Bright, juicy red fruits (raspberry) - great acidity. Some leather and herbs - typical barbaresco. Super approachable now.

2/2/2024 - meticulist Likes this wine: 94 points

93+ worth every penny of the $30 paid. Bright and complex on the nose and first sips, berries, dried cherry, cranberry dryness, leather, toasted oak, cocoa, hint of berries and cream, with a juicy fresh acidity that is immediately tamed or challenged by finely integrated tannins and a long dry finish. Definitely benefits from a good decant as the tannins smooth out and more of the earthy flavors come forward. Fresh, but still complex, bright, and long. Really enjoyable.

Piemonte et al (Winechester): Lovely nose - densely packed fruit, a hint of spice. Palate tells a similar story - an almost abrasive character to the tannins but they give it life and provide a foil for the fruit - and there's a kind of almond essence intensity to it. Proper wine.

3 hour decant. improved each hour in the glass.
Excellent structure. Crisp with fine tannins. Light red fruit profile of strawberries, cherries. Very elegant and savory with a long and focused finish too.
Can only get better from here. 96+

Really honest wine. Not particularly complex and no airs and graces but it is a really lovely fruit driven wine. It’s drinking well now and I wouldn’t be looking at it as a long term proposition. But the fruit is very attractive, great with food, sweet fruit and I’m really pleased I own 4 more. Very appealing

Bottle off the wine list over lunch at Moka. Awesome lunch and wine. Pop and poured. Gloriously approachable.
Appearance is clear, very pale intensity, bright ruby colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of beautiful pure red fruits - red cherries, ripe strawberries, rose flowers, fresh minerally earth. Licorice and herbal essences with more air. Developing.
On the palate, dry, gentle medium+ acidity, medium+ alcohol (14.5%), soft sleek approachable tannins, medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet rose petal potpourri, bright red cherries, ripe strawberries, red pomegranate, herbal essences ?rosemary & thyme. Long finish with lots of classic sour red cherries emerging with more air.
Very very good quality. Drink now and over the next 4-5 years. From the Rizzi cru in the commune of Treiso.

Clear red colour. Strawberry, cranberry and little touch of vanilla. Glaciers cherry, sweet musk, cranberry flavours with a bit of tartness at the end. Still a good amount of fruit with a touch of acid bite. Very enjoyable - in a nice drinking window.

This was impressive when tasted at Filippo’s Artisan Wines tasting in 2015, and while there’s still a good wine here it’s lost the vibrantly vital plum and cherry fruit profile it had then, now a little more restrained and measured. Possibly caught in a halfway state between youth and tertiary maturity. ***1/2

Opened in the morning, drunk over dinner. TN from the second day.
Balsamic notes, a bit of VA, red fruit, a touch of earthy notes.
Medium bodied, well balanced, some power, but not excessive. Flavorwise it is deep, earthy, even with ferrous notes. A touch of bitterness on the finish.
Quite good.

10/14/2023 - dhwesley wrote: 90 points

No sediment, limpid garnet color, perhaps a hint of brown or maroon, trasparent and clear. Out of the bottle nose is not yet open for business, palate well integrated with fine tannins, bead of acidity and subtle fruit.

After 2h it still comes across as fairly closed, kept overnight. The next day, after a few more hours of air, the wine is coming into its own. The nose is still not showy but a hint of tar, roses, cherry and grippy tannins round out the palate.

It's not a showy wine by any means: it's got good bones so I think the smart move is to give it a few more years in the cellar, and see where things go from here. If you must drink it now, be patient and give it a lot of air. 90 for now but there is some upside potential.
