The 2007 Barbaresco Valgrande is an excellent choice for near-term drinking. Freshly cut flowers, mint and berries are just some of the nuances that emerge from this forward, expressive Barbaresco. Captivating floral notes are woven throughout, adding to a sense of elegance and poise that accompanies the wine from start to finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019. Ca’ del Baio is an excellent source for juicy Barbarescos that can be enjoyed with a minimum of cellaring. Various American importers: Jan D’Amore Wines, Brooklyn, NY; tel.
