Pulsating <strong>Heart cherries<\/strong> meet <strong>Assam tea<\/strong>, <strong>black cardamom<\/strong> and <strong>Juniper<\/strong>. Striking <strong>Tobacco notes<\/strong> are provided by <strong>Kumquat<\/strong>-Citrus ethereal inspires, while <strong>Thyme<\/strong> and balsamic nuances contribute additional complexity. A conglomerate of flavours that squeezes out of the chalice with solid pressure.<\/dd>\n<dt>Palate<\/dt>\n<dd>The true class of this Barbaresco is revealed here: extract-rich fruit builds up immense pressure, carried by powerful, tightly woven tannins. The structure is reminiscent of Bruce Lee - power meets finesse. A vibrant acid nerve accelerates the wine, while cool minerality lends it tension. Fleshy and firm, yet radiantly clear in the fruit. Open-hearted and joyful with an astonishingly fast drinking flow for a young Barbaresco.<\/dd>\n<dt>Departure<\/dt>\n<dd>Fruity and ethereal with a lingering presence.
