DeForville, Barbaresco "Loreto" 2022 Piedmont, Italy

Red Wine De Forville Nebbiolo Barbaresco Italy Barbaresco for under $40 from a traditional producer? Yes, please. It smells of Nebbiolo and drinks like a wine more serious than the price. An outstanding value. This wine is emblematic of the work done at the De Forville estate: the wine is rigorously traditional, marrying the finesse of Barbaresco with the alluring aromas and flavors of truffle, earth, berries, rose and leather and carrying, most important of all, a backbone of sweet, dusty tannins that give real length and breed. A wonderful wine!
