Country: Italy / Martinenga
Variety: Nebbiolo Piedmont
Winery: Tenute Cisa Asinari dei Marchesi di Gresy / Barbaresco
This single-vineyard Barbaresco offers underbrush and tobacco leaf aromas layered with toast, espresso and oak. The palate is succulent, featuring black cherry, licorice, spice and eucalyptus notes. Nicely balanced, but still young and aggressive; best after 2015.
