Barbaresco

"Good deep red. Musky raspberry, minerals and a whiff of dusty oak on the nose. Spicy red fruit flavors offer good juicy cut and verve. A lively, firmly structured midweight that offers very good mouth coverage and finishes persistent and classically dry." -Stephen Tanzer (12/1/07)

"Bright ruby-red. Pure, very ripe, highly complex aromas of blackberry, violet, minerals, graphite, licorice and tar. Densely packed and seamless, with terrific cut to its lush flavors. Very sexy flavors of violet and amaro-like bitter herbs." - Stephen Tanzer (12/1/07)

"Red-ruby. Pungent aromas of plum, earth, truffle, minerals and tea. Concentrated and sweet, with a distinctly higher-pitched quality than the Costa Russi; lively acids give the flavors more definition.Impressively juicy and concentrated wine." - Stephen Tanzer (12/1/07)

"Full ruby-red. Dark raspberry, minerals, rose petal and a whiff of tar on the nose, along with a chocolatey impression of ripeness. Dense, suave and youthfully closed, with the flavors of violet, minerals and chocolatey oak displaying increasing definition with aeration. Showing its oaky side today and tannic on the back end." - Stephen Tanzer (12/1/07)
