Angelo Negro 'Basarin' Barbaresco

The red fruit and spice notes hit right away on the nose, exactly as described. Tannins are so gentle and integrated that it's dangerously easy to finish the bottle.

Poured a glass and the garnet color is just beautiful, with that precise red fruit and spice aroma hitting right away. On the palate it’s surprisingly smooth and elegant, not harsh like some younger Nebbiolos I've tried. Already ordered another bottle to cellar.

The nose is exactly as described—that hit of red fruit and citrus is so precise it feels almost perfumed. On the palate it's wonderfully elegant, the tannins are soft and refined, making it dangerously easy to sip. Finishing the bottle felt like a quiet celebration in itself.
