Tasting notes
The 2022 Barbaresco Vigneto Gallina is a very pretty, delicate wine. Crushed flowers, bright red-toned fruit, spice, mint and dried herbs are nicely lifted. In this vintage, the Gallina is decidedly understated and refined, with less of an oak imprint than what has been the norm. This is such a joyous wine. The only question is whether the slightly gritty tannins will soften.

A medium ruby red hue, the 2022 Barbaresco Gallina has pretty and refined layers that start to unfold in the glass with notes of cinnamon, bright red berries, currants, sweet tangerine citrus, and floral perfume. The palate is linear and focused, with fine tannins, ripe acidity, and notes of dusty earth on the finish. It’s a very pretty wine out of the gate and should drink well over the next 12-15 years.
