A bit mossy and sullen

lemongrass and a hint of spice

Granny Smith apples and plenty of citrus zest

texture while delivering excellent persistence on the balanced though very firm finale

stylish and intense flavors are equally refined with a beautifully and caressing mouth feel on the moderately complex but nicely persistent finish

Piero Busso, Barbaresco Albesani Borgese other_regions_italy A bit mossy and sullenThe 2020 Barbaresco Albesani Vigna Borgese is a potent, structured wine. Given its imposing tannins, I would give it a few years to come together. Chalk, mint, dried flowers and sweet red cherries open gradually, and 2020 remains quite reticent.
