The 2016 Barbaresco Montefico is a jewel of a wine. Freshly cut flowers minerals crushed rocks rose petal and lavender are all finely cut. As always the Montefico is tense and chiseled in style. Its sense of transparency is simply beguiling. Sage mint and sweet pipe tobacco are some of the nuances that linger. The Montefico is a Barbaresco that will thrill readers who enjoy taut reds. It blends the fruit richness of the Montestefano with the verve of Ovello.
vWine Spectator: 96 Points
There is some weight and richness to this red allied to cherry and plum flavors. Flourishing notes of iron tobacco and black pepper add detail while the dusty nervous tannins emerge on the long finish. Shows more structure today yet this has all the components in the right place. Best from 2025 through 2047. ?B.S.
