One of my favorite whites. I find it semi sweet, bright and crisp. Very refreshing. — 12 hours ago

Tough and compact. Just ripe crunchy strawberries and soaring complex aromatics. One to lay away, but massive potential. — 19 days ago

20241112 Rest. Antica Torre, Barbaresco with Wakano
2017
Great acid, more tanin (rhubarb) than the Asili (2017) of yesterday, complex, fruit, rich taste.
With air getting better and better and softer.

Yes. Yes. Yes. You can get the detailed notes elsewhere, but all I’ll say is a great Barbaresco. — 10 hours ago

The 2021 Barbaresco is a gorgeous wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. Crushed red berry fruit, cedar, spice, mint and orange peel are all beautifully lifted in this ethereal, understated Barbaresco from Prunotto. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, October 2024)

From one of my favorite co-ops. I believe they are still the third largest co-op in Europe. Their tasting room sits on the top of the hill in the center of Barbaresco under & to the side of the church with an easy downhill short walk to Gaja.

2019 was a very good vintage in Piedmont.

The nose shows some light smokiness and lightly grilled meats. Dullish fruits of; blackberries, dark cherries, poached strawberries, raspberries with notes of black raspberries. Sandstone, dark earth and dark withering flowers with red roses.

The palate is ripe, juicy and lush. Quite pleasant for a youthful Barbaresco. Blackberries, dark cherries, poached strawberries, black raspberries, raspberries & blueberry hues. Crushed sandstone & limestone, nice mid spice, dry tobacco, tough leatheriness, barrel shavings, soft presence mix of dry & fresh herbs, dry river stone, red cola, brilliant red florals, red & pink roses, excellent acidity with a nicely tensioned, structured, balanced, elegant finish that lasts minutes landing on wood & dry earth.

Another one to cellar 8-10 plus years. — 22 days ago

Soft and velvety for such a young barbaresco. Ripe cherry, licorice, dried herbs, cedar, damp earth. Accessible — a month ago
