Note di degustazione
As it often is, the 2005 Barbaresco Riserva Pora is one of the most open and resolved of these 2005s. It, too, can use some air though, so opening a few hours in advance is essential. Early tertiary notes of tobacco, cedar, menthol, earthiness, smoke, licorice, dark spices and black cherries are nicely expressed. The 2005 doesn't have the multi-dimensional personality of the best Riservas, but in exchange, it is one of the most resolved and ready to go of these wines. At the outset, I had hoped the tannins would resolve in a slightly more polished manner, but they have not. In a good cellar, the 2005 will drink well for another decade plus.

Barbaresco. Medium-deep ruby with rim just starting to show some orange. Sweet fruit and sweet pastry. Very backward palate, very slow to open up. Astringent tannin, but fruit concentration matches this. (WS)
Bright red. Fresh, mineral-tinged red fruits and menthol make for a vibrant nose. Sweet, silky and deep, displaying more density and stuffing today than the 2004. Finishes broad and long, with very good acid lift.
The 2005 Barbaresco Riserva Pora is wonderfully layered in its dark cherries, spices, menthol, licorice and minerals. The medium-bodied Pora is one of the firmer and more linear Riservas in 2005. Still, it shows exceptional balance in a powerful style that will require a measure of patience. Here too, the finish is wonderfully elegant.
