Tasting notes
La Ca' Nova's 2016 Barbaresco is a jewel of a wine. Powerful and yet wonderfully translucent, the straight Barbaresco expresses everything that makes Nebbiolo so special. Sweet dark cherry, pine, menthol, licorice and spice are all finely knit, but it is the wine's energy and overall harmony that stand out most. This gorgeous, classically built Barbaresco has so much to offer.

Tasted from tank prior to bottling, the 2016 Barbaresco is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. Rich, aromatically intense and utterly beguiling, the 2016 captivates from the very first taste. The 2016 is medium in body and yet delivers so much flavor intensity, in the way only Nebbiolo can. In a word: fabulous!
