The Barbaresco Classico is from 1.5ha of the Rabaja Vineyard in Barbaresco with an average age of 35 years. What a charmer. Red berries, cherry, mint and liquorice, some dried flower perfume, dried herb too. It’s medium-bodied, cherry and red berry, quite juicy, bright and fresh, a little orange zest, ripe brick dust tannin, with a lively finish of excellent length. It offers sophistication and restraint, which is very much their house style, and drinks so well. 93 points. Gary Wash.
