Tasted on February 17, 2024. #DailyWine #wine #nebbiolo #Piedmont #Barbaresco #ProduttoriDelBarbaresco This is a historical, iconic producer of Barbaresco. It is a co-op of many owners and it consistently excels in quality. Even though it is not the steal it once was, it remains relatively well priced. Dry red wine, 14% alcohol. Medium-light opacity, ruby…

#DailyWine #wine #nebbiolo #barbaresco #Adriano #value #piedmont Great Barbaresco, great aromatics, great value. This wine is from an under the radar producer in Langhe, named Marco & Vittorio Adriano. They make incredible wines, but for some reason they are not mainstream. Praised by many reviews (e.g. Ian D’Agata), they must not appeal to others, or…

#DailyWine #wine #nebbiolo #barbaresco #piedmont #Paitin Dry red wine, 14% alcohol. Ruby color, medium opacity. The nose was initially closed, then slowly it opens up with cherry, cherry liqueur, roses. Very attractive aromas. Full body, nice grip of acidity and tannins (prominent but not bitter). This wine has a long life ahead, but it needs…

2019 Rizzi Barbaresco [Rating: 4/5 | $37]
![2019 Rizzi Barbaresco [Rating: 4/5 | $37]](https://d-nardi.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/img_6531.jpg?w=1024)
Keywords: red wine; Nebbiolo grape; Piedmont region; 14.5% alcohol. A cherry-layered-cake-flavored wine explosion. Another Barbaresco from a reference producer. This is their entry-level Barbaresco, yet it is vineyard designated (as opposed to a blend from many vineyards), as Rizzi is the name of the specific vineyard (almost a monopole for this producer). Garnet color, medium-light…

This wine is the big brother of the Fontanabianca Barbaresco of the same vintage that I reviewed here. It is a vineyard designated wine (Bordini), which is for wines that are typically made with better grapes, aged longer before release, are more age worthy, and more expensive. Ruby color, medium opacity. Medium intensity nose, needs…

2019 Fontanabianca Barbaresco [Rating: 5/5 | $33]
Pale brick-red color. Classic aromas of cherry, pan di spagna cake, spices, and tobacco. This is mainly fruit-driven with tobacco notes. Concentrated flavors even in the mouth, great texture and it has mid-full body. The tannins are there, but they are harmoniously integrated with the concentrated fruit. Long finish with tobacco and plums. One of…
