This is an elegant, modernly-styled Barbaresco: a marriage of the clear aromatic qualities of Nebbiolo with a touch of polish and subtle roasted, savory accents from aging in a mix of smaller French oak barrels and traditional, large casks.
KERIN O'KEEFE 94 POINTS - "Charcuterie, grilled herb, wild berry and forest floor aromas come to the forefront on the Fontanabianca 2022 Barbaresco along with whiffs of dark spice. Boasting restraint and elegance, the palate delivers ripe wild strawberry, mature red cherry, star anise and thyme alongside taut fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Abv: 14% Kerin O'Keefe April 2025" Drink through 2034.
