Reviewed November 2024Lovely fragrances of cinnamon, nutmeg, red cherry and lilac introduce the wine, with transparency and freshness which overflows onto the palate. It sports quite a serious backbone of dry, chalky tannins with supple fruit to smooth out the edges. Balanced and flavourful, it has appetising savoury length. Produced since 1988, when the family stopped supplying grapes to the Produttori del Barbaresco. As there will be no Riserva bottling in 2022, the old 1957 plantings are blended here. (MM)

Vinous
The 2022 Barbaresco Asili is a rich, heady wine from Ca' del Baio. Kirsch, blood orange, mint, cinnamon and a kick of orange peel open in the glass. The more exuberant side of the year comes through in racy Barbaresco that is decidedly on the riper side, but all the elements are very nicely balanced. There's just a touch of alcoholic warmth here.
