@Delectable Wine This is the 2016 Ca’ Rozzeria Barbaresco “Single Vineyard - Nieve.”
This is Garagiste’s private label for “mystery” wines of excess inventory from actual good wineries. No clue who the actual producer of this beauty is, but damn! This is sooooo classic and packed. Color is old school in that it’s relatively pale, not saturated at all. Fragrant ripe rich macerated cherry on the nose, with spice, dried rose petals, crushed rocky gravel, rich mahogany furniture scents. So deeply fragrant. On the palate it’s deep and structured. Drinking well now but will last years. Both weighty and a bit austere, with great transparency. Deep flavors of dried cherry extract. Loads of powerful but fine grained tannin. Great acids and very nice length. I absolutely love this.
