2022 Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco 750ml

'The straight 2022 Barbaresco from Produttori del Barbaresco is fragrant and refined, with aromas of blue flower, red berry, citrus and balsamic whiff of eucalyptus. Surprisingly fresh and juicy for the hot, extremely dry vintage, it boast flavors of tart red cherry, orange zest and star anise alongside taut, refined tannins that leave some grip on the finish. Drink through 2030.' 94 points - Kerin O'Keefe 

'Bright and overtly fruity, this is full of intoxicating violets, cinnamon, blood oranges and black cherries, expressing mint and balsamic depth. Full-bodied with a soft, smooth attack, dusty yet velvety tannins and brilliant acidity. The chocolaty finish shows licorice and a mouth-coating texture. Delicious and balanced.'

'The 2022 Barbaresco is a pretty rich, heady wine. Dark cherry/plum fruit, cloves, licorice
and mocha build as the 2022 shows o its considerable depth. This is one of the few 2022s
that is quite resonant texturally. The aromatics could be more lifted and the tannins could use a bit more polish, but those qualities were next to impossible to come by in 2022.
The inclusion of some juice from Riserva lots in a great help. All things considered, this is a stellar showing.' 93 points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous

'The 2022 Barbaresco is a jeweled red color and aromatic of ripe raspberry liqueur, fresh cherries, sweet herbs, and pressed flowers. Medium-bodied, it has a slightly broader, rounder shoulder, with ripe tannins and a clean, even finish. It is juicy, and while it might not be as complex as the 2021, it doesn’t feel the alcohol, which is certainly a bit higher in this vintage as well.' 92 points - Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnick
