Truffle, camphor violet and ripe berry aromas come together on this fragrant red. Full-bodied and full of flavor, the delicious palate doles out juicy Morello cherry, raspberry compote, baking spice and star anise while firm, refined tannins provide support. Bright acidity keeps it balanced. Drink 2027-2039.

Packaged with a black label, the Fontanabianca 2019 Barbaresco Bordini delivers the goods with a bright, fruit-driven bouquet layered with dried cherry, licorice and mild spice. The precise focus of the bouquet is what stands out most in this classic vintage, along with the wine's firm and linear mouthfeel.

Tightly wound, with a compact matrix of tannins putting a grip on the cherry, raspberry, mineral, tar and tobacco flavors. Shows energy, along with a kernel of ripe fruit that lingers on the long aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2045. 800 cases made, 100 cases imported.
