The 2006 Barbaresco: What Impressed Me

Published Nov. 10, 2009 at 10:57 a.m.
2006 was a fine vintage in Piemonte, and I was much impressed by the 2006 Barbaresco poured at this year's vintage presentation. Quality was quite high, and there are some very fine wines to be had. Wines that are for the most part very young -- Barbaresco, like it's Cousin Barolo, can age for decades -- but that will already drink well with succulent roasts or hearty stews. Assuming you're not blessed with the patience necessary to allow them to grow. If you are, they'll richly reward you.
