Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Pajé' 2019
KO 98 AG 93
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Pajè is full of character. Strong mineral, savory and floral notes jump out of the glass, before veins of tannin make themselves felt on the palate. A powerful, young Barbaresco, the Pajè is going to need a number of years to come into its own. That said, all of its signatures are very much present.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 93 Points KO 98*NOTE Galloni tasted in Sept 2023 noting his intent to look at the PdB Riservas in 12 months expecting they will resolv

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Rio Sordo' 2019
KO 98 AG 93
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Rio Sordo is quite deep in this vintage, with notable depth in its dark-toned fruit. This is an especially powerful Rio Sordo that is still coming together. Its intensity is palpable, even if I see less of the finesse that I associate with wines from this site. Today, all of the wine's energy is directed inwards.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 93 Points KO 98*NOTE Galloni tasted in Sept 2023 noting his intent to look at the PdB Riservas in 12 months expecting they

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Montefico' 2019
KO 98 AG 93+
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico is one of the most searingly tannic wines in the range. Readers will have to be patient with the 2019, as it is going to need time. As always, Montefico is a Barbaresco built on linear intensity more than size. In 2019, the qualities are quite accented. Time in the glass opens the bouquet nicely, but the 2019 remains quite closed.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 93+ Points KO 98*NOTE Galloni tasted in Sept 2023 noting his intent to look at the PdB Riserva

Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo 'Castellero' 2021
Fenocchio's Castellero comes from a cooler site east facing site. With similar soils to Cannubi. Darker fruited than Cannubi. Ripe, layered, nutty tannins, with an elegant, composed wine with a dark edge, lovely acidity support perfectly weighted core of fruit with a balanced richness. Claudio's preference is to harvest on the earlier side, whilst making sure the tannins are suitably ripe for the vintage. It shows here in the energey of fine texture of the wine.Tasting this alongside a 2019

Benjamin Leroux Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru 'Hauts Jarrons' 2022
One of Leroux’s close friends owns these vines in the heart of the 1er Cru on the east-facing Beaune side of Savigny. The most elegant Savigny wines tend to come from this area, so it is perfect for powerful years. Like most Côte d’Or terrain, the soils are clay/limestone, but the clay is light and sandy. So, although there’s more flesh than in the village cuvée, there is also greater finesse. All the fruit was destemmed this year, and again, it is a wonderfully bright and juicy renditio

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Asili' 2017
The Produttori del Barbaresco 2017 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is distinguished by its extremely linear and direct approach with wild rose, cassis and lots of mineral or crushed stone. The wine is taut and fresh on the palate with a medium-lean texture and lots of depth and persistence. I love those bright rose petal-like nuances on the close of this wine, and the tannins are firm and silky. This bottle boasts a unique identity in this group of Riservas.Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate
