Showing intensity and structure, the full-bodied, delicious palate boasts a weightless concentration, delivering fleshy raspberry, blood orange, almond liqueur and licorice alongside tightly woven, velvety tannins. Fresh acidity lifts the rich flavors and provides great balance.

Notes
The 2019 Produttori del Barbaresco "Rabajà" Barbaresco Riserva is a quintessential expression of Nebbiolo, sourced from the prestigious Rabajà vineyard in Barbaresco. This vineyard, renowned for its calcareous limestone soils interwoven with sandy veins, spans 3.7 hectares and benefits from a south-western exposure at an ideal elevation. The result is a terroir that imparts structure, finesse, and complexity to the wine. Crafted using traditional methods, this Barbaresco Riserva is aged for a minimum of 36 months in large oak barrels, followed by additional bottle aging. The wine pours a brilliant garnet red, exuding aromas of wild berries, pressed roses, and dark spices, along with balsamic hints of camphor and leather. On the palate, it reveals a layered profile of fleshy raspberries, blood orange, and licorice, framed by velvety tannins and vibrant acidity. The long, savory finish highlights its impeccable balance and aging potential.
