Score 92/100 · Drink 2022-2030, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2018
The 2015 Barbaresco Albesani Santo Stefano is pliant and racy, all while maintaining a mid-weight sense of structure. Dark red cherry, sweet tobacco, crushed flowers, pine and rose petals all flesh out in in this super-expressive, resonant Barbaresco. The 2015 clamps down quickly in the glass, but that is not a bad thing at all for its future prospects.

Neive. Tasted blind. Mid ruby with bricky rim. Lift and concentration on the nose, and cherry and the beginning of tar. Generous and quite ripe fruit sustained by lots of grainy tannins. Gorgeous succulence on the finish with plenty of fine, powdery tannins. (WS)
