Roncaglie Barbaresco Nebbiolo
Barbaresco, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Reddish in color with medium intensity, with a beautiful nose, right out of the bottle.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Showing red and black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf and herbs.
Long finish with round tannins and cherries.
This Italian Barbaresco is delicious right out of the bottle. Well balanced and easy drinking. Elegant and rich.
I had the 2015 Riserva not too long ago and loved it as well.
This 7 year old is showing nice complexity already, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Took a while to open up, but when it did, this light wine has teeth-staining tannins, pretty lavender accents and a bitter cherry finish that carries on forever. Definitely drinkable now but this wine is so young, could age for a decade before truly balancing out.

Extremely pretty and perfumed on the nice. Ripe cherry fruits, acid and tannin (despite young vintage) actually quite well integrated and smooth. Paired with recipe from Antica Torre Restaurant Barbaresco....perfect.
