Smooth and complex Barbaresco with a light New World influence, presenting a lush plum and chocolate profile with a nuance of citrus. The tannic profile provides a firm foundation, as the mouthfeel is full and coarse, with a grainy finish. The color is deep, but the ochre tint remains intact. A pleasing and lingering cocoa aftertaste is a hallmark of this wine.
