Fontanabianca, Barbaresco 2019
- Red
- 75cl
- ABV 14.5%
The junior of the three Barbarescos here, this one is a commune-level wine, the Villages wine if you like. As such, it makes up for its slightly lesser concentration and complexity with a highly approachable style.
With a ruby core and orange rim, aromas of nutmeg, clove, licorice, and orange peel, on the palate powerful and concentrated with a little viscosity yet with ripe fruit notes of strawberry and blackberry and supple tannin that has an agreeable raspiness, excellent length and bags of charm, combining concentration with a Pinot Noir-like elegance.
From thirty year-old vines on clay-limestones soils, vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and aged in botte (big barrels of anything between 1,000 and 10,000 litres) and barriques for 12-15 months.
