Barbaresco Sori Paitin 2013 (750ml)
Vinous: 93 Points
The 2013 Barbaresco Sorì Paitin is pure class. Dark mysterious and inviting the 2013 is all about allure. Dark spices menthol sage rosemary and dried flowers grace the palate in a dark sumptuous Barbaresco endowed with class and personality. The 2013 had just been bottled at the time of my visit and is likely to require at least a few years to come together which is quite typical for these wines. -Antonio Galloni

"A muscular style revealing leather licorice cherry and sweet spice aromas and flavors. This has depth and a dense structure finishing with intensity and fine length. The lasting impression is of sweet fruit. Best from 2019 through 2035. 1200 cases made. ?BS"

Loads of ripe berry fruit with dried flowers. Full to medium body round and chewy tannins and a spicy finish. A year or two will soften the tannins but already delicious.

This opens with classic Nebbiolo aromas of ripe red berry violet leather dark spice and a balsamic note. The chewy palate doles out fleshy Marasca cherry licorice clove and a hint of pipe tobacco alongside robust but smooth tannins. Drink from 2018 through 2023.
