We had the 2008 Montestafano on 8/30/15. Just a wonderful Barbaresco. Silky texture. Raspberry and some leather in a medium bodied wine with a smooth finish. Tannins smoothed out with an hour of air time.

Beautiful. No decant. Tannins interwoven across the fruit with with fruit, flower and a little bit of that Nebbiolo tar on the finish. At 15 years (and no decant) this is built to last. Haven’t written a proper note in some time so figured I owed @Ron R given his great notes. 🤙🏻

What a beauty! Ripest red fruit, soft cranberry, deep dark cherry undertones, raspberry jam, cedar, fine leather, bonfire smoke, fantastic dry forest. Love this very much.
