  Complex sour cherry, earthy, lifted orange peel. It has a pact of everything, delicious to drink now, but I feel it develops a little fast than expected, comparing with other Barbaresco I had before, such as PdB. Might be an awkward batch or not well stored, as the other 2 bottles of 2019 Pajore from the same shipment was also tricky (one is obviously oxidized, the other is better but still matures faster than expected).

  Very nice Barbaresco. Lightish red colour, complex nose with ripe red fruit, rose petals, cinnamon, balsamic and creosote. Ditto taste with a good whack of soft tannin, enjoyable now but with a lot of future ahead. Very long finish. Excellent. Diam30 cork, so no worries.

  A ripe and warm nose to start with, and some oak and herbs too. It got more perfumed later on. It has ripe and clean fruit and an intense mid palate with a chalky finish. Good potential. 93+

  Consistent with other years. Approachable and juicy from the start (bubble gum). Edges of mineral, truffle, and herb. Acidic but very balanced. Probably best in ten years.
