Produttori del Barbaresco Ovello, Barbaresco Riserva DOCG, Italy 2020 1.5L
“Ovello” Barbaresco Riserva 2020 is a beautifully structured and aromatic expression of one of Barbaresco’s most historic crus. Sourced from the cooler, high‑elevation Ovello vineyard, the 2020 vintage reveals lifted aromas of red cherry, dried rose, and wild strawberry layered with notes of anise, orange peel, and subtle earth. The palate is refined and classically Nebbiolo‑driven, with vibrant acidity and finely woven tannins framing a core of bright red fruit and mineral nuance. Crafted by the esteemed Produttori del Barbaresco, this Riserva balances elegance with quiet power, offering exceptional precision now and the structure to evolve beautifully in the cellar for many years.
"The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello is a massive, packed wine. Graphite, crushed rocks, dried herbs and cedar open first. Ovello tends to produce a more linear style of Barbaresco, and that is very much the case here as well. However, the 2020 also possesses notable depth and layers in the mid-palate. It's a gorgeous wine in the making." Vinous 95
