On the nose the red fruits are a bit shy and overshadowed by the earthy and savory notes of black tea leaf, tobacco, tar, balsamic, and licorice. The flavor is much more balanced with sweet cherry leading the way. Medium body. Lively and delicate on the palate. Mellow dry tannins.
Prinsi is a small Neive based winery. This single cru Riserva is its flagship bottling. 48 months in combination of Slavonia and French oak casks. — a year ago
The 2018 Barbaresco Bordini is a dark, full-bodied wine that expresses the natural intensity of this sector in Neive. Readers will find a bold, structured Barbaresco endowed with serious depth. Black cherry, sage, menthol, licorice, mocha and spice are all kicked up in a Barbaresco that balances energy with size. The 2018 is one of the best versions of this wine I can remember tasting. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, February 2022)

Licorice, tiny hint of Jolly Rancher watermelon, oak paneled steakhouses, cigar smoke filled libraries, wood burning stoves. Having with steak and potatoes. One of my favs. — 2 months ago
