The Barbaresco is a wine that ages for al long time. It is somewhat less stringent than the Barolo. After 4-8 years after the harvest, it can be drunk. It has an aging potential of 8-30 years, in which it steadily improves.

This dry, elegant and full-bodied wine has rich and complex tannins.

Younger vintages are pleasantly fruity, even if they still appear closed on the palate. Prolonged maturation opens the typical notes of violets, dried flowers and spices. The finish is long lasting and soft.

Traditionally we drink Barbaresco to typical dishes from Piedmont.
