    BARBARESCO

    96 Cantina del Pino 2015 Albesani (Barbaresco). Camphor, licorice and dried mint aromas align with scents of dark-skinned fruit. Full bodied and impressively structured, it shows energy, precision and finesse, delivering juicy cherry, ripe cranberry, licorice and tobacco. Firm, noble tannins and fresh acidity provide the ageworthy framework. A fantastic performance. Drink 2023–2035. Vinity Wine Company. Cellar Selection. —K.O.

    96 Cascina delle Rose 2016 Rio Sordo (Barbaresco). More structured than Tre Stelle, this is another intriguing, gorgeous Barbaresco that shows the firm’s hallmark of elegance. It opens with aromas of ripe, dark-skinned fruit, truffle, violet, mint and a compelling earthy note suggesting game. On the youthfully austere palate, tightly wound but noble tannins and bright acidity support juicy Marasca cherry, licorice, mint and brown spice. It’s already tempting, but give it time to unwind and develop even more complexity. Drink 2024–2036. Polaner Selections. Cellar Selection. —K.O.

    abv: 14% Price: $60

    Enticing scents of rose, violet, menthol and nutmeg float. —K.O.
