The 2007 Barbaresco Rabaja bursts from the glass with layers of tar, smoke, minerals, menthol, pine and Christmas cake that are wrapped around a core of intense black fruit. This is one of the more muscular, brooding wines readers will come across in 2007. The oak is beautifully integrated in this large scaled, sweeping Barbaresco. The Rabaja will be even better in a few years' time, but I can hardly fault readers who don't want to delay gratification, as this is a delicious bottle. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2027.
