Very fruity and plummy with blackberry and cherry character and hints of spicy oak. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and velvety tannins. Slightly austere now but will come around nicely with bottle age. Same quality level as 2000. Best after 2008. 5,500 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbaresco Select to Add
