Montestefano Barbaresco Nebbiolo

Young and hard to get a hold of… though aromatically lovely. A lot potential so hold it if you got it.

The 2016 Barbaresco Montestefano is magical. Bright and translucent, the 2016 pulses with energy from the very first taste. This is about as classic as things get in Barbaresco today. Sweet rose petal, cinnamon, dried flowers, cedar and mint all give this ethereal, wonderfully nuanced Barbaresco ton of subtlety. A kick of bright Nebbiolo acids and tannins give energy and shape.

Nose is classic. Floral, sapid, more later

One of my favorite producers, but this was an off bottle.

The best producer I had never met before this trip. Wow! This is an extraordinary wine.
