"A fantastic vintage of this wine, the ruby-hued 2019 Barbaresco Basarin is spicy and lifted with notes of potpourri, incense smoke, mint, and bright red berries. Medium-bodied, with good lift and balance, it's quite complex and offers lovely balance as well as length. Drink 2024-2037."

"Expressive, this red exudes black cherry, leather, tar and a touch of wild herb aromas and flavors. This has ample flesh to offset the firm structure, and the finish is framed by subtle vanilla and toasty oak. Excellent length. Best from 2026 through 2043. ‡B.S. "
