The 1987 Barbaresco DOCG from Adriano Fratelli winery is a wine that tells a story of passion and tradition from Piedmont, a privileged region for viticulture. This vintage, characterized by a balanced climate, has resulted in a wine of extraordinary elegance and structure. In the glass, Barbaresco presents itself with an intense garnet red color, with reflections leaning towards brick, a sign of its aging and complexity.
On the palate, the power and finesse of the Nebbiolo grapes are immediately evident, showcasing notes of ripe cherry, plum, and withered rose, accompanied by hints of sweet spices and a touch of leather. The tannins are present but rounded, making this wine extraordinarily harmonious.
Excellent when paired with game, braised dishes, or mushroom risotto, the 1987 Barbaresco from Adriano Fratelli is an ideal companion for rich and structured dishes. Sipping it is like taking a journey to the heart of Piedmont, through the gentle hills of Barbaresco, where tradition and innovation blend to create a wine that never fails to impress. Its long, persistent, and refined finish invites you to be enveloped by its unique and captivating personality.
