Viniou Reviews

The 2019 Barbaresco Cuvée Rabajà from Produttori del Barbaresco is a quintessential expression of Nebbiolo, hailing from the prestigious Piedmont region of Italy. Known for its complexity and elegance, this wine offers a bouquet of red berries, rose petals, and earthy undertones, with a structure supported by fine tannins. The terroir of Barbaresco, characterized by its calcareous clay soils and moderate climate, imparts a unique balance and finesse to the wine. Produttori del Barbaresco, a revered cooperative winery, has a rich history dating back to 1894 and is renowned for consistently high-quality, traditional Barbaresco wines.

For a harmonious culinary experience, pair this Barbaresco with rich, savoury dishes such as osso buco, truffle-infused risotto, or roasted game meats. The wine's acidity and tannic structure will complement the hearty flavours of the dishes. Exploring regional pairings, try it with agnolotti del plin, a stuffed pasta dish from Piedmont, which perfectly accentuates the wine’s refined complexity.

Serve this Barbaresco at about 16-18°C (60-64°F) to preserve its aromatic nuances. Decant it for at least an hour prior to serving to allow the intricate aromas to unfurl. Begin the tasting by observing its garnet hue, then savour the bouquet through a few deep sniffs. Sip slowly, allowing the wine to coat your palate, revealing layers of flavour and a long, rewarding finish.
