    Do you know the Basarin vineyard near Neive? You can expect a bright ruby-garnet colour and a wine from a particularly fine vintage: the bouquet is a cornucopia of wild sour cherry aromas, herbs, a little liquorice and tobacco. Firm and very clearly structured on the palate, muscular and yet with an elegance that never loses control due to its power. Basarin is a highly energetic and precise Nebbiolo that only reveals its complexity with a little patience and aeration. The neighbouring Neive terroir reveals itself with distinguished elegance and blends harmoniously with the volume and weight typical of the site - and with a depth that only vines over 50 years old can produce.

    "The Barbaresco Basarin 2021 is a dense, rich wine. Preserved cherry, plum, lavender, rose petals, spices and new leather are recognisable. The natural intensity of the vintage is expressed in this decidedly dark, intense Barbaresco. However, the return to super-classic winemaking balances things out nicely. I expect the Basarin to be the most approachable of these 2021s." Vinous

    "This Barbaresco opens with a seductive nose that stimulates the senses. Hints of spiced wild berries, smoked black tea, crushed dried leaves and baking spices swirl in the glass, while delicate floral notes further ensnare the senses. Elegant and refined, but with a classic Nebbiolo structure that highlights flavours of dried cherries along with wild thyme and bay leaf, which combine on the palate with the hurried acidity on the finish." Wine Enthusiast

    "The 2021 Barbaresco Basarin is expressive and complex with very precise aromas of cassis, navel orange, pulverized stone and licorice root. The tannins are chalky, and the wine offers a pretty sense of lingering sweetness. Winemaking is traditional, with up to three months of submerged cap and aging in botti. Fruit comes from a three-hectare site in Neive with old vines on white soils." Wine Advocate
