A lovely Barbaresco that is barely just entering its drinking window. The bouquet was soft and delicate, quite mystical in some ways and had notes of violet, rose and roasted coffee beans (more so than licorice). Possessed a beautiful and very refined acid structure, carrying flavours such as tar, cherry and tea superbly. Long finish.
Drink now or 7+ years.

A well-made barbaresco from a great vineyard. An unusually rich nose of tar and roses. Beautiful, dark cherry palate with soft fruit, fine tannins, and a long finish. An elegant nebbiolo at the beginning of its drinking window, with 10+ years of enjoyment ahead.

Now this is Barbaresco. Pronouced nose, soft on the palate. I am drinking the entry level. I am reviewing the wrong wine.
