Barbaresco "Bordini", Elvio Cogno, 2022

A highly expressive Barbaresco The bouquet is welcoming and complex, weaving together succulent plum, ripe strawberry, and warm, crushed nutmeg with delicate rose petals, orange zest, dried herbs, and fine spice. On the palate, the wine showcases its signature dual character - combining lavish red-fleshed fruit with the traditional Nebbiolo structure true to the Bordini terroir. Firm yet velvety tannins offer an excellent backbone, while a vibrant acidity beautifully balances the rich fruit, injecting freshness and vitality into the robust body. It culminates in a long, savory finish accented by a fine streak of minerality. 100% Nebbiolo Aged 12‑14 months in large wooden barrel pH value: 3,41 James Suckling | 94 Pts (Vintage 2021) Wine Advocate | 94 Pts (Vintage 2021) Cellaring: Drinks well now through 2037 Food Pairing: Slow-braised beef trunk or a classic roasted rack of veal with a wild mushroom sauce.
