Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Jun 16
Ample, bold and powerful, the 2004 Barbaresco Riserva Rabajà is just as captivating as it has always been. The 2004 possesses notable finesse to balance its broad, expansive personality. Cedar, smoke, game, tobacco, iron and game are some of the notes that give the 2004 its complex, multi-faceted personality. The full pedigree of the vintage is on display here.

Barbaresco

Barbaresco, a prestigious red from Piedmont, Italy, is made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes. Known as the “Queen” of Piedmont wines, it offers elegance and aromatic complexity with flavours of red cherries, raspberries, roses, and earthy notes. Its well-integrated tannins and vibrant acidity enhance its ageing potential. With calcareous soils and favourable microclimates, Barbaresco is a more approachable alternative to Barolo. Top producers include Gaja, Produttori del Barbaresco, Bruno Giacosa, and Pio Cesare, who exemplify its refined character.
