Natalie's Score: 92/100

Juicy, mouth-watering acidity makes this robust Italian red wine ultra-versatile with food. This vibrant wine offers lovely aromas of tart cherries and plums. Smokey with a satisfyingly long finish. Full-bodied and supple. Decant 1-2 hours for maximum pleasure. Try it tonight with a dish featuring tangy tomato sauce.

Barbaresco food pairings: homemade tagliatelle and veal ragĂș, lamb, roasted game meat, slices of Piave vecchio.

Reviews and Ratings

Philippe Perreault - Sommelier rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Barbaresco is made of 100% Nebbiolo.

Clear garnet color with notes of dry plum, rose flower and undergrowth.
It's full-bodied and there's still a bit of bitterness so you can keep this wine an other 3-5 years in your cellar.
Pair it with a T-Bone steak.
Serve it at 15-17 degrees.
This robust Italian red wine is lots of dark berry fruit aromas and flavours. Deep concentration and a long finish. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
