"The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Cole is a powerhouse. A blast of dark plum fruit, mocha, espresso and sweet French oak all race across the palate. The 2020 spent 30 months in French oak, 50% new. Not surprisingly, the Riserva is a pretty extroverted wine that will please lovers of this style. I admire the richness and density here, but find the oak at the limit. The site lends itself well to Riserva, but I think there would be more site character with less oak."
