Trediberri
Berri Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour; not nearly enough but the evidence is palpable. The 2021 “Berri” pours a brilliant garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with powerful notes of Morello cherry, raspberry, cranberry, roses, tar, talcum powder, dried green herbs and dusty earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from then nose. The finish is long. From my humble perspective, Trediberri are truly a producer in their ascendency and the 2021 example simply affirms that. Drink now with patience and through 2061+

Dec 8th, 2025Popped and poured; enjoyed over two days. Progressive evolution throughout but consistently enjoyable after about 30min of air. My notes reflect the full progression. The 2019 Barolo “Berri” pours a bright garnet with a transparent core. Medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. No signs of sediment or gas. On the nose, intensely gorgeous aromas raspberries, dark cherries, roses, tar, orange rind, and dried herbs. On the palate, high tannin, medium+ acid, and medium+ alcohol. Confirming the notes from the nose. The fruit is tart, crunchy, fresh and the finish is very long and savory. With air, this seems to build some weight. This is really right up my alley and quite impressive. If this is representative of why there is increasingly more interest in the Berri cru, I can certainly understand why. There is quite a lot to like. There is freshness and an underlying confidence/power that is beguiling. Traditionalist hearts will pitter patter. Drink now with patience or reap an even more handsome reward down the line. This should drink very well through 2040 and beyond.

Open for business, and really amazing. Was more on the fruit forward side, but such delicious fruit!
