Region | Italy: Piedmont | |||
Notes | "The 2013 Barbaresco Martinenga is soft, open-knit and gracious, especially for a late-ripening vintage, until a burst of acidity kicks in on the finish... The 2013 is a typically refined, sensual wine from this site, with high-toned aromatics, pliant fruit and good tannic grip on the finish. This is very nicely done. The 2013 was aged 60% in cask and 40% in French oak barriques." (Vinous) | |||
Additional Notes "A mix of spicy oak, peppery cherry and tobacco flavors highlights this firm, leafy red. Tips toward the dry side, with vanilla and black pepper notes lining the gripping finish. Best from 2019 through 2027. 4,000 cases made." (Wine Spectator) |
