[SOLD-OUT] Produttori del Barbaresco Rabaja' Riserva 2015

"The 2015 Barbaresco Riserva Rabajà hits the palate with a blast of dark cherry, plum, chocolate, new leather, licorice, smoke and spice. Somber and imposing, the Rabajà shows plenty of its typical breadth and body, but, not surprisingly, it is also closed and in need of time. There is good energy here, if not quite the visceral thrill of the very best years." Vinous Media 

"Slight spice box dustiness, raspberry and other red fruits, a touch of liquorice. So svelte and composed, a mineral touch to this, a sweep of sand to the feel of the tannin, and gentle grip and liquorice root flavour on a long finish. Latent potential. Watch it unfurl." Wine Front

"Barbaresco DOCG is produced every year from the 100 hectares of vineyards controlled by the Produttori within the appellation, mainly in the Barbaresco village itself.

In the best vintages, the historical crus are vinified separately. Rabajà produces a quintessential Barbaresco, one of the most complete and balanced of the single vineyards.

 The vineyard lies at the conjunction of the two main ridges that form the Barbaresco village, one starting at Rabajà and going West towards the Tanaro River (with progressively less calcium and higher fertility in the soil) and the other one that goes from Rabajà to Ovello, South to North (with higher calcium content in the soil).
 
The meeting of these two different soils give to Rabajà its incredible complexity. Bordering both Asili and Muncagota it combines the personality of those two great vineyards with and extra richness due to the South/West warm exposure. First produced as a single vineyard in 1971."Produttori del Barbaresco
