2019 Barbaresco Serraboella

The 2019 Barbaresco Serraboella is stellar. Here, too, the austere style of the year comes through loud and clear, but with that extra kick of mid-palate sweetness that distinguishes the Serraboella. Bright, red-toned Nebbiolo fruit, crushed flowers, mint, chalk and orange peel all build in the glass. The Serraboella is usually a bit richer, but in the 2019 it is a Barbaresco very much marked by sizzling tension. I would cellar it for at least a few years. There's real depth and substance here.
