Elio Altare, Langhe rosso doc Larigi 2015

2015 war durchschnittlich ein warmes und ausgewogenes Jahr. Das zeigt sich in dieser balancierten Barbera in Form von Frucht, Eleganz, Komplexität und Länge, Mineralität und milder Säure.
Ein Wein zum sofort Genießen, aber auch zum Lagern.

"Altare's 2015 Larigi, 100% Barbera, is dark, plush and inviting. At the same time, the Larigi retains quite a bit of freshness for a wine from a radiant, warm year. Black cherry, plum, chocolate, spice and menthol infuse this supple, racy Barbera. In 2015, the Larigi is decidedly understated and gracious. It will be interesting to see if a bit more flesh develops in bottle. Today, the Larigi speaks to finesse above all else." Antonio Galloni - Vinous

"Here is a generous and jubilant expression of 100% Barbera. The 2015 Langhe Larigi opens to a dark and succulent inner core of black fruit, dried blackberry, crushed granite and smoky spice. This wine is refined in new oak to gain extra structure and more spicy flavors. The mouthfeel is thick but velvety. There is a note of sweetness on the finish." Monica Larner - Robert Parker
