Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Nov 13
(bottled in magnums; aged for two years in 30% new barriques): Bright, deep saturated red. Primary aromas of black cherry, licorice, menthol and violet. Boasts uncanny sweetness and density, with fresh acidity giving the wine lovely inner-mouth tension and a firm structure. In a powerful, virile style, finishing with a whiplash of dark fruits and flowers. Voerzio farms his barbera like his nebbiolo vines. They're planted at very high density (up to 8,000 plants per hectare), and each vine ultimately yields between 500 and 700 grams of fruit. Incidentally, there is no 2009 Pozzo as the wine couldn't finish its fermentation.

Italy

Italy, renowned for its diverse wine styles, produces wines from a vast range of indigenous grapes, reflecting its varied climates and soils. Notable reds include Barolo and Barbaresco from Piedmont, made from Nebbiolo, and Brunello di Montalcino from Tuscany, crafted from Sangiovese. Chianti Classico, also from Tuscany, is known for its vibrant Sangiovese-based blends, while Veneto's Amarone is a rich, full-bodied wine made from dried grapes. Top producers like Gaja, Antinori, and Marchesi di Barolo exemplify Italy's commitment to quality and tradition in winemaking.
