2006 Barbaresco Classico, Prunotto

This is a standard for us on our date nights. -  This highly touted vintage of Barbaresco is rich with plenty of structure and strength. It offers enticing aromas of black cherry, smoke, tea and licorice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and velvety with a satisfying long finish.  We drink it with a wide variety of Italian dishes from pasta, pizza, steak and salmon.  This well-extracted and mature expression of Nebbiolo from the Antinori estate in Piedmont is a mature and fruit-driven expression of Barbaresco with dense concentration and a New World style. There’s very good complexity here in the form of black licorice, chopped mint and rhubarb.
