Green apple and lemon zest/oil dominate the aromatic profile, showcasing a mineral-driven character. Lean on the palate with a salty quality, this wine pairs exceptionally well with oysters or other seafood dishes.
Medium intense amber orange; aromas of burnt orange, marzipan and a hint of coffee. Medium-full with very good concentration. Rich finish with notes of coffee, chocolate and tree bark. Excellent complexity and typicity; a bit more subdued than some examples of Amaro. Enjoy over the next 3-4 years. 25% alcohol.
Though underscored by vibrant acidity, this distinctly sweet white displays toffee, butterscotch, walnut, orange zest and multi-grain toast aromas and flavors. Concentrated, this persists on the finish, with dried fruit, fig and date notes. Shows terrific length. Trebbiano and San Colombano. Drink now through 2040.
Tenuta Scerscé coaxes from their vines something truly special. This wine, the Essenza, opens with aromas of fresh cherries, herbal tea, cola and wildflowers. The palate is plump with juicy red-fruit notes that are balanced by notes of dried herbs and fresh earth. Fine tannins and crisp acidity show that this wine will drink well for a long while. Drink now-2040.
Black walnut husk, game and truffle chocolate to the plums and dark cherries. Medium- to full-bodied palate with firm and fine-grained tannins that glide through to a juicy, bright finish. Lovely austerity here will help it hold. From organically grown grapes. Drink or keep.
This is one of the most structured Barbarescos from here, showing lots of dark fruit and black olives, together with bark and black truffles. Full-bodied and layered with fantastic structure and a long finish. Needs four or five years to come around.
