Tasting Notes

This wine possesses lots of glycerin, low acidity, and a forward, unreal, atypical lushness and opulence. The exotic 1997 Barbaresco Faset offers an explosive nose of red and black fruits, dried herbs, roasted nuts, and toasty oak. Already delicious and impossible to resist, this voluptuously-textured, dense, layered, fruit-driven offering is an undeniably compelling Barbaresco to enjoy during its first 10-15 years of life.
