2012 & 2013 Barbaresco – A Study in Contrasts

Condividiamo con voi qui di seguito alcune parti di un interessante articolo pubblicato nel mese di dicembre sul portale online di Antonio Galloni VINOUS. Per chi volesse leggere l’articolo per intero troverete anche il link – buona lettura! “Readers will find two very different sets of wines in the 2012 and 2013 Barbarescos. The 2012s are open-knit, supple and ready to drink, while the 2013s – from one of the latest years in recent memory – embody all the qualities that make Nebbiolo one of the world’s most noble grapes; soaring aromatics, pulsating energy, structure, and, most importantly, the rare ability to transmit the essence of site. Barbaresco’s Emerging Young Producers All of which brings us to the present and future. Many of today’s most exciting Barbarescos are being made by the new generation of young producers”. “In Treiso, Giorgio Pelissero makes racy, luscious Barbarescos full of personality. That is just the tip of the iceberg”. “It is pretty clear that Barbaresco’s future is in the hands of today’s emerging young growers and winemakers. But Barbaresco’s producers need to get out more and eradicate a culture of insularity that has been the region’s Achilles heel for so long. Given what I have seen so far, I am optimistic that can happen”.VINOUS
