Moccagatta 2009 Basarin (Barbaresco)

Country: Italy / Basarin
Variety: Nebbiolo Piedmont
Winery: Moccagatta / Barbaresco

Past vintages of Moccagatta’s Basarin Barbaresco have been stellar, but this bottling still needs time to find its feet. The fruit is youthful and raw; the tannins are tight and astringent. Give this wine 8–10 years to evolve.
