Produttori del Barbaresco BARBARESCO 2021 750ml
Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021
The Wine Advocate by Monica Larner writes 95+ Points | This wine gives us our first taste of the epic 2021 vintage from a producer as prolific as Produttori del Barbaresco. Bottled in April 2024, this vintage shows the immense power and complexity that likens it to 2016, another year for collectors. The 2021 Barbaresco offers medium-rich density that is transmitted both to the wine's appearance and its mouthfeel. There is black fruit, spice and a touch of nutmeg. However, the wine maintains its youthful tension and energy throughout. The tannins are chalky, fine and void of any bitterness. This is a classical expression of Nebbiolo that gives us good reason to be excited for the upcoming 2021 Barbaresco Riservas.
Winemaker Descripption
Classic Barbaresco color with scents of spices, pepper and black cherries. Powerful, firm, elegant and ethereal.
Pair with fresh pasta, meat dishes, particularly lamb and feathered game and mild cheeses.

Expert Reviews
Wine Advocate Monica Larner 95 Points writes | The organic Ceretto 2019 Barbaresco Bernadot shows a broader character and a more open-knit personality compared to the Asili. There is a lot of dark fruit, spice, truffle and earth to frame the medium-build of this elegant wine. (2019).
Wine Spectator 94 Points | A bright red, delivering a core of cherry and raspberry fruit supported by earth, mineral and wild herbs. Intense, complex and dense, this is solidly built and persists with an aftertaste of dark fruit, mineral and spice. Best from 2025. (2019).
Roagna Barbaresco Paje 2019 750ml
Kerin O'Keefe: 97 Points:
"Great red fruit aromas come to the forefront along with Alpine hay and baking spice on the captivating 2019 Pajè from Roagna. Mirroring the nose the elegant structured palate delivers pristine fruit sensations of juicy red cherry wild strawberry star anise and citrus before a bright salty finish. A backbone of refined tannins and bright acidity provide support. Drink 2029-2039."
Antonio Galloni - Vinous: 96 Points
"The 2019 Barbaresco Pajè is a step up from the first Barbarescos in this range. Its depth is apparent even from the color. Deeply pitched spice notes meld into a core of dark-toned fruit. Leather incense licorice and scorched earth follow adding layers of dimension. This fabulous edition of the Pajè is notable for its textural resonance and overall presence."
Pajé is particularly rich in calcareous marl soil with a high content of active limestone. The vineyard covers a total of 1.83 Ha (4.52 Acres) with unique soil and microclimate. The amphitheater of Pajé opens onto the Tanaro river valley which mitigates the cold winters and hot summers. Pajé is a small strip of land facing South West. The vines for this wine are between 25 and 50 years of age and today the average ages of the vines is over forty years old. The roots are sourced by used the massage wood system by using only clippings that we have pruned from the Paje vineyard.
Fletcher Acobia Bitter Liqueur 1L
Producer Description
Vibrant, tangy Bitters made from organic Arneis grapes in Italy. A litre bottle to boot
Thirteen herbs and spices have gone into Dave Fletcher's wonderful Acobia Bitter Vino, which is two more than the Colonel managed for KFC's secret recipe.
Certified organic Arneis was the base for the alcohol into which the herbs were infused. It's full of citrus, cherry cola, and a myriad of other flavours. It has great length and vibrancy, with a full-bodied feel.
