This tiny 2 ha cru is truly the Vosne-Malconsorts of Barbaresco. Five spice, cumin, coriander, soy, black tea. At its apogee. Epic, feminine and engaging.

My pick of the 4 Barbarescos. Again from magnum. Riper fruit still showing at 11 years of age. Powerful with a savoury dry tannin finish. Hard to fault. Excellent.

Tar, menthol, roses. Lovely stuff. It'll be even better in a few years.
