Note di degustazione
Cantina del Pino's 2012 Barbaresco Albesani captures plenty of the richness, breadth and intensity of this site, but, like the Ovello, it is quite open for a relatively young wine. Succulent red cherry and plum flavors make a strong first impression. Firm, young Nebbiolo tannins add structure and plenty of grip. Albesani is a south-facing site that tends to give bold, racy Barbarescos. That is exactly what readers will find here, although the irregular vintage has tempered some of the site's natural exuberance.

The 2012 Barbaresco Albesani follows in the feminine and graceful style that is so unique to the wines of Cantina del Pino. Dark fruit and wild cherry are followed by light shadings of spice, tobacco and licorice. The wine shows very good integration and balance. That seamless integration follows through to the palate, thanks also to the wine’s long persistence.
