Lots of flower petal, dried strawberry, cedar and milk chocolate character on the nose and palate. Medium-to full-bodied with tannins that build on the palate and are long and consistent. Turns soft at the end as it grows on the palate. Better in 2027 and onwards. 95 points. JamesSuckling.com Feb 2024

Notes
100% Nebbiolo from the Bordini site, 240m high in the village of Neive in the Barbaresco production zone. It’s a 4.5-hectare south-facing site at 240m elevation on calcareous soils, and the vines have an average age 40 years. The site is sustainably farmed with no use of chemical herbicides or pesticides. The Bordini vineyard was chosen specifically for its well allocated exposure and composition of soil, which is particularly sandy. These distinct factors offer a lighter, more delicate and wonderfully aromatic nuance to the wine.
Maceration and alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled vats for an average period of 15 days. Malolactic fermentation done in used (2nd passage) French oak barrels, followed by 18 months of aging. Finally, bottle-aged for about 8 months.
The wine is light ruby red, with hints of small red berries, frangipani, and licorice on the nose. On the palate, there are herbal and fruit notes. The wine is complex and well balanced. The Tannins are all present, and the finish is fine and persistent. – The Spinetta
