Marchesi di Grésy Martinenga Barbaresco DOCG 2021

 

From one of Barbaresco's benchmark vineyards, the Marchesi di Grésy Martinenga Barbaresco DOCG 2021 is bright and expressive with a delightful core of fruit.

Tasted at the cellar during an extensive tasting, swirl the glass and orange peel, tar and licorice bullets rush to introduce themselves. These flow through to the palate where a subtle thread of spearmint tucks in and adds some freshness without disrupting the wine's structure. The tannins build a neat momentum but highlight its youth. It drinks with confidence but this come of age without doubt and I suspect the tannins will melt into the frame. Hold - patience will reward.

Drink 2027 to ten years+
