The 2020 Barbaresco boasts an ample set of aromas with wild cherry, blue flower, sweet spice and crushed limestone. As always, the wine paints an exciting and authentic portrait of Nebbiolo, albeit with a little more richness and texture in this vintage. This is especially true in terms of the palate, where the wine offers mid-weight intensity with melting tannins. This ambitious release of 300,000 bottles is slated to hit the market in fall 2023.
Aldo Vacca of Produttori del Barbaresco explains that the nine single-vineyard Barbaresco Riservas were not made in 2018, and therefore that whole program is absent from the estate's 2023 releases. However, there is an exciting new addition to the portfolio, the 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Don Fiorino, which you will find reviewed here.
