2021 Castello di Verduno Barbaresco
92
Jeb Dunnuck
Review Date: 05/2024A bright ruby color, the 2021 Barbaresco is fresh and floral on the nose, with notes of fresh roses, raspberries, sweet herbs, and fresh peach. Medium-bodied and bright on the palate, with tangy citrus taking the lead, it offers finely coiled tannins, zesty acidity, and a chalky texture, then turns to more tangy cranberry-noted fruit, with a good bit of grip on the sides of the palate. This is a refreshing and energetic Barbaresco to drink over the next 10-12 years. (AF)

Notes
The Castello di Verduno Barbaresco showcases the elegance and complexity that Barbaresco is renowned for. On the nose, it opens with a bouquet of red cherry, rose petals, and a hint of truffle, accompanied by subtle notes of dried herbs and licorice. The palate is finely structured with a balanced acidity and silky tannins, reflecting the classic Nebbiolo profile with flavors of ripe raspberry, plum, and a touch of tobacco. The wine’s mineral undertones and earthy nuances add depth, while the finish is long and harmonious with lingering hints of spice and leather. Ideal for pairing with rich dishes like braised meats or aged cheeses, this Barbaresco offers both immediate enjoyment and potential for aging.
