Note di degustazione
The 2009 Barbaresco Riserva Montestefano shows a high degree of boldness and opulence. This is an immediately generous wine with soft fruit flavors of blackberry and Morello cherry. It shows thick natural density with good tannin management. You sense the structure at the back but the wine never feels astringent or rough. Riserva Montestefano exhibits a tight, thickly woven texture that will contribute to slow the wine's future evolution. In other words, this wine is built like a tank.

Good healthy deep red. Musky, reduced nose offers dark raspberry and a whiff of menthol. Big, broad and sweet in the mouth, with plush raspberry fruit given shape and lift by lovely vinosity. This rather powerful, even massive, Barbaresco opened beautifully in the glass to show a deep sweetness and lovely perfume. The long, slowly mounting finish betrays no rough edges. I'd lay this down for five years.
The 2009 Barbaresco Riserva Montestefano brings together the best qualities of the vintage, with a solid core of intense fruit, expressive aromatics and a measure of tannic heft that will keep the wine fresh and vibrant for many years. Dark cherry, plum, spice and leather notes flesh out on the huge, voluptuous finish. In 2009, the Montestefano is fabulous.
