Black cherry, blackberry, violet and eucalyptus aromas and flavors introduce this red, whose texture verges on creamy, offset by velvety tannins. One can feel the ripeness of the vintage, yet there's fine cut and a long, detailed finish. Best from 2026 through 2043.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbaresco Select to Add

Macerated cherry, plum, hay and eucalyptus mark this rich, tannic red. The finish is compact, while the flavors end up on the balsamic, savory side. This needs time for the fruit and structure to integrate. Best from 2025 through 2036. 580 cases made, 174 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbaresco Select to Add

Complex aromas and flavors of macerated cherry, raspberry, plum, earth and underbrush are backed by a dense structure of lively acidity and dusty tannins. The ripe fruit at the core plays out on the lingering finish. Best from 2023 through 2042. 580 cases made, 200 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbaresco Select to Add

A release of 2,500 bottles from 60-year-old vines, the 2017 Barbaresco Serraboella is a fitting wine for the vintage. The fruit is open-knit and generous, and you are aware of some of the heat and generally dry conditions that shaped this challenging growing season. Even more problematic was the dramatic loss of fruit following hail and freeze in April. The aromas are not overripe, but you do get dried cherry and prune. The tannins are a degree drier. In fact, the scorching conditions of the vintage are much more evident in the textured, astringent tannins of this wine. This is the weaker link in the estate portfolio.

A gorgeous expression of cherry and raspberry flavors, plus floral hints, sets the pace. Accents of mineral and underbrush add depth as this cruises to a long finish. Best from 2023 through 2043. 700 cases made, 245 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barbaresco Select to Add
