This Barbaresco Rio Sordo Riserva from the esteemed Produttori del Barbaresco, a 2020 vintage, will display a garnet red color with orange reflections developing with age. On the nose, expect complex aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry, and rose petals, interwoven with classic Nebbiolo notes of licorice, tar, truffle, and a hint of spice from oak aging. The palate will be full-bodied, structured by firm yet elegant tannins and vibrant acidity. Flavors will echo the aromatics, with a persistent finish revealing layers of fruit, earth, and mineral complexity, characteristic of the Rio Sordo cru known for its finesse and structure.
