The Produttori del Barbaresco 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is defined by a special spiciness that is reminiscent of powdered cinnamon and nutmeg folded into dark fruit. The wine is open-knit and quite ready, and it also shows a pretty mineral note of ferrous earth or rusty nail. Like the other Riservas in this series, it is aged in botte grande or otherwise neutral oak. The 2019 vintage tends to show more volume and texture. 96/100 (01.2025) - Wine Advocate
