Produttori del Barbaresco

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2015

Popped and poured; consumed over a three hour period. No formal notes. The 2015 Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco pours a deeper garnet color with a translucent core. Medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. No signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is currently bursting with red and dark fruits: blackberries, Luxardo cherry, pomegranate, green herbs, red flowers, green herbs, and tar. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. The notes on the nose are confirmed. The finish is long and savory. Really compelling stuff in the context of the night. I think the 2015’s are drinking so well right now. Unfortunately, this is my last bottle of the “classico” but I’ll be on the hunt for more if I can score at a good price. Drink now if you’re going to allow for some evolution in the glass or enjoy through 2035. — 2 years ago

I find with 15 when they are good they are amazing but i’ve also found many to be hot, alcoholic, unbalanced and weird intense tannins then they are bad. but PDB never missed.

@Lyle Fass agree 💯. 2015 is one of my least favorite vintages in Piemonte in the last 15+ years. That being said, some were capable of outstanding wines

Feudo di Mezzo Etna Rosso Nerello Cappuccio - Nerello Mascalese 2020

On an Etna Rosso kick and this is one of the best. Maybe the best? The combination of fruit and lively tannins that are elegant but enough to wake you up. — 4 months ago
