Spicy aromas of peppercorn mingle with violet, red woodland berry and eucalyptus on the stunning 2021 Barbaresco from Castello di Neive. Full-bodied and loaded with finesse, the elegant, structured palate delivers succulent Morello cherry, star anise and white pepper set against a backbone of velvety tannins that provides polished support. Fresh acidity keeps it bright and balanced.

As the wine opens, it reveals a garden full of ripe raspberries, rosebuds, thyme and dried leaves. The elegance of this wine cannot be overstated. A finesse that showcases the beauty of this vintage. A bowl of cherries sits on the palate as fine and elegant tannins prop up the fruits and allow a mineral edge to glide in as vibrant acidity keeps everything bright and fresh. Drink now–2040.

A well-delineated red, bursting with energy, along with aromas and flavors of cherry, strawberry, rose, tar, licorice and sweet spices. Dense and vibrant, with a long aftertaste echoing the spice notes. Best from 2026 through 2042. 5,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.
