WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Made with nebbiolo grapes from the old vines that cling to the highly eroded soil of a steep vineyard in Cascina Quinto, heart of Montaribaldi. A very rich bright garnet red Barbaresco with a vinous nose and a soft, complex palate.
Already harmonious when young, it is capable of long aging in the cellar. Like the other Barbarescos, it should be suitably oxygenated before being drunk, ideally with pasta with meat sauce, roast and braised beef and veal, and hard and mature cheeses.
TASTING NOTES:
The 2020 Barbaresco Montaribaldi is a classy, elegant wine. Black cherry, plum, leather, spice, mocha and licorice fill out the layers beautifully in this ample, resonant Barbaresco. The 2020 exudes presence and character from start to finish. It is another wonderfully vivid, expressive wine from Bruno and Danilo Nada.
