Note di degustazione
The 2022 Barbaresco is a terrific wine from Cortese in this challenging vintage. Hints of kirsch, blood orange, spice, menthol, star anise and cedar meld into a core of sweet red-toned fruit. This pliant, mid-weight Barbaresco is all charm. Floral notes extend the subtle yet sneakily persistent finish. Cortese's Barbaresco is a blend of fruit from Trifolera and young vines in Rabajà. The 2022 spent 18 months in cask.

The 2022 Barbaresco exhibits a youthful ruby red hue and is expressive in its perfume of dried strawberries, potpourri, hints of leather, and fresh lavender. Medium-bodied, it’s approachable and juicy upfront, with its more savory notes coming through the mid-palate, along with zesty notes of orange peel and dried earth. It’s a charming and well-managed Barbaresco in this intensely dry vintage and retains its freshness very nicely. Drink 2025-2035.
The 2022 Barbaresco offers a good deal of up-front appeal. Naturally, it lacks the complexity and dimension of the best years and top wines here, but there is a good deal of charm. Sweet red cherry fruit, white pepper, orange peel, cinnamon and rose petals meld together effortlessly. It's a gorgeous wine from a very challenging year. I would prefer to drink this sooner rather than later.
