| Description: | 95 W&S / 94 JS / 93 Wa. Luca Currado makes this Barbaresco with fruit from vineyards in Treiso and Neive. Its cherry and raspberry flavors exhibit the dense concentration typical of the hot and dry 2017 vintage, yet the wine is lifted by fresh scents of rose petal and vibrant, finely woven acidity. Already beautifully integrated, the taut tannins and long finish indicate plenty of aging potential.- Stephanie Johnson, Wine & Spirits. So much fruit here with dried-strawberry, floral and citrus aromas. Full-bodied with very integrated tannins that are polished and dusty, yet chewy and fine. Dry earth and berry at the end. Becomes shy and reserved. Let it open. Drink after 2024.-James Suckling. A release of 5,193 bottles, the Vietti 2017 Barbaresco Masseria opens to a spicy bouquet with a subtle point of white pepper or dried ginger that hovers over the bouquet, albeit briefly. At its core, the wine shows bright berry notes and some plum, although the wine's concentration remains finely etched and elegantly streamlined, overall. I do find the tannins to be a little dry and dusty in this hot-vintage release.- Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate |
