Since the 2016 vintage was so exceptional throughout Barbaresco, Produttori del Barbaresco decided to bottle a special wine by blending from all of their 9 single vineyard Cru sites. The resulting Don Fiorino Riserva was aged for 3 years in French oak and an additional 2 years in bottle prior to release. It shows aromas of white truffle, meat, wet earth, lightly burnt orange peel, and pure fruit. Medium-bodied and very compact, with a block of silky tannins that run through the palate and then come out at the end with a gorgeous texture.
