Old style wine
I love the detailed description attached to the neck of the bottle telling you all about the site, the winemaking and how to deal with the wine
This is a Barbacarlo's brother, not minor though
It starts quite fruit orientated, but it does unfold over many hours in the decanter
At first you can mistake it for a robust sparkling shiraz(given that it has a fizz when opened).
Day 2 the blue mineral it's all over and it is smoother and more enjoyable too( the tannin is more digestible too)
Very long and to review again in many years
Ps after a battle in Marengo(Italy) Napoleon stopped by in the area and sipped on this delicious nectar; from there the vineyard hill is also called Napoleon's hill(as well as Montebuono hill). — 8 months ago
Soft and balanced, just straight-up mature. Not herb-y, not spritzy, a unique barbacarlo and lovely. — 7 years ago
Nice, very Italian. Tasted like a blend of nebiolo and Sangiovese but didn't contain any of the grapes — 8 years ago
Черри-кола, сухая малина, клюква, ревень, темные пионы, можжевельник, прелая хвоя, жирная земля. Почти не ощутимая газация, сочное среднее тело с естественной кислотностью и интегрированными танинами. Свежо, полно, ещё первично, без явных возрастных признаков. Жовиально и ещё чуть первично, но при этом фактурно и глубоко, в отличной форме. — 6 years ago
Surprisingly expressive nose for his age, still full of life and tons of intensity — 8 years ago

Surprise, surprise - It’s not that wine Iyou usually drink. Kind of a mix of amarone, nebbiolo and lambrusco. The best of all them. — 4 months ago
