Barbaresco Riserva Ovello 2021

Dieser Barbaresco Riserva aus der historischen Einzellage Ovello zeigt, was große Nebbiolo-Kunst ausmacht: selektierte Top-Parzellen, nachhaltige Tiefe und eine beeindruckende Balance aus Frische, Struktur und Eleganz. Die lange Reife in großen französischen Fässern und die ungeschönte Abfüllung geben ihm eine außergewöhnliche Klarheit und Präsenz. Ein Wein, der mit jedem Schluck seine Herkunft erzählt – souverän, präzise und mit echtem Riserva-Format.

Displaying a saturated medium red hue, the 2021 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello offers notes of dusty cedar, red cherries, raspberries, and crushed stones, although the wood tones will need time to fully integrate. Medium-bodied, the palate has beautiful brightness, with hints of apricot and stone fruit along with a more linear, elegant structure. For me, this wine holds a very special place in the range and quietly stopped me in my tracks during the tasting. Roughly 16,666 bottles were produced. Drink 2026-2056.

The 2021 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello sizzles with tension right out of the gate. Orange peel, mint, chalk, white pepper and crushed rocks are all finely sketched. Bright and sinewy to the core, the 2021 captures the purest essence of Ovello. It's another stellar wine in this range. The Ovello will appeal most to readers who like tense wines.

Restrained if not austere, showing dark fruit, earthy tones and cherries with almost wild blackberries and a whiff of blood oranges. Full-bodied. The attack is dense and velvety with thick, firm tannins that are dusty yet ripe. Powerful but well-balanced at the end, with a mouth-coating texture. March 2026 release, but will need another year or two to be ready to drink.
