UK-exclusive, old vine Barbaresco Riserva in a sustainable presentation box
The Wine
Riserva wines are only made from carefully selected grapes, and only in good years. This Barbaresco Riserva is smooth and complex, with flavours of dried strawberry, cloves and vanilla. It’s made in the classic style of Neive, showing the full might of Nebbiolo’s tannins. Smooth and powerful, they have been softened by a lengthy aging process with 36 months in large French oak casks and small barriques. The result is a mellow and enjoyable Barbaresco Riserva.
