Medium body vintage with intense mineral and spicy aromas, balanced ripe tannins and elegant finish. This vineyard produces full-bodied wines with intense red fruit matched by youthful tannins on the finish. Pair with fresh egg-pasta dishes, risotto, white and red meat, game, venison.

The 2017 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello is a heady, explosive wine. I don't think I have ever tasted an Ovello from the Produttori with this much heft. The strong mineral and saline accents typical of this site are present, but they are matched pound for pound by notable mid-palate richness and intensity in its fruit. The 2017 is a brooding powerhouse that needs time to unwind.

Menthol, star anise and blue flower aromas mingle with botanical herb. The full-bodied palate recalls cherry extract, licorice, fruitcake and baking spice alongside densely woven, fine-grained tannins. Drink through 2029.
