Very round, sweet, but beneath that is a traditional Barbaresco with tar, rose petals, red berries. Dusty tannin, fairly low acid. A different Barbaresco than I expected, with the sweetness and lower acid, but interesting in its own right.

Still a powerful wine. Fruit still very much in evidence although started to taste a little stewed. Found this slightly off putting. Huge sediment as others have noted.

Knights of Alba (KOA) BYO Barbaresco Dinner (Legacy Records): More fresh fruits in flavor although similarly more of a darker style. Big and powerful. Nice to see the young version of this since we got some ones with great age later in the evening.

Dark red. Notes of leather, cigar box and maple candy, still lots of up front oak and tannins, herbs and cherry and chocolate on the finish

Closed for business. Why does high end Italian disappoint far more often than stun? Love Produttori in general, but this was a miss
