Ruby-red color, with light garnet hues. Rich, powerful concentrated nose with hints of ripe fruit. Fresh and bodied on the palate. Notes of red and black fruits (strawberry, blueberry and blackberry). Well-integrated ripe soft and silky tannins. Particular almond note on the finish. It shows an overall incredible finesse and excellent balance.
Pair with stewed and roasted meats, wild game and sharp seasoned cheeses.
Luca Currado makes this Barbaresco with fruit from vineyards in Treiso and Neive. Its cherry and raspberry flavors exhibit the dense concentration typical of the hot and dry 2017 vintage, yet the wine is lifted by fresh scents of rose petal and vibrant, finely woven acidity. Already beautifully integrated, the taut tannins and long finish indicate plenty of aging potential.
So much fruit here with dried-strawberry, floral and citrus aromas. Full-bodied with very integrated tannins that are polished and dusty, yet chewy and fine. Dry earth and berry at the end. Becomes shy and reserved. Let it open.
