IWC: By Stephen Tanzer
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Issue #135, November/December 2007)
(Pio Cesare Barbaresco) ($57) Good medium red with a hint of amber. Reticent but pure aromas of raspberry, tobacco, faded rose and marzipan. Dense, fat and creamy, with a downright liqueur-like sweetness to the pliant flavors of red fruits and truffle. Like the '03 version, this is a particularly mouthfilling Barbaresco, but this example is deeper and sexier. A wonderfully supple style. (91-92) points |
