Organic/Bio "Basarin" in dialect means "sun-kissed," and this famed vineyard on the border between the zone of Neive and Treiso seldom struggles to achieve full ripeness. But there's a bit of altitude here as well, adding a layer of freshness and finesse. The 2020 is already tempting in a full of fruit way, but give it at least a few years in cellar and the more savory side of Nebbiolo will begin to shine through.

Jeb Dunnuck: 94 Points

"A generous sweet perfume of pressed violets, ripe cherry, cinnamon, and incense emerges from the 2020 Barbaresco Basarin. The tannins are more giving here, and its fruit expands through the palate, with refreshing acidity and wonderful balance and purity. It is drinking well now and will continue to improve over the coming 10-15 years."

Vinous: 94 Points

"The 2020 Barbaresco Basarin is a wine of pureand total sensuality. For a just bottled, young Barbaresco, the Basarin possesses magnificent balance. A burst of dark red fruit, spice, rose petal, mint and blood orange hits the palate, followed by a good kick of Nebbiolo acid and tannin. Readers have to be patient. This heady, explosive Barbaresco is shaping up to be a gem. Drink 2025-2040"
