WINE DESCRIPTION
Barbaresco Rabaja, a magical "Nebbiolo" from one of Barbaresco's finest locations. Luisin owns a small 1-hectare plot, producing one of Piedmont's finest, most traditional wines. Only "Bruno Giacosa" and "Bruno Rocca" can compare! The wine opens with red berry fruits, florals, and the classic herbal notes on the nose, revealing evolving aromas with each swirl – a sensory delight! The palate is robust yet elegant and charming, benefiting from 5 to 10 years of aging, depending on the vintage. This is a remarkable wine and a true classic.
