Merchant's description

The Barbaresco Rabajà is one of the flagship wines from the Bruno Giacosa estate. Wines from the Rabajà site are often characterized by their elegance, complexity, and great aging potential. They typically offer a rich bouquet of red cherries, dried roses, spices, and earthy notes, and are known for their balanced structure and refined tannins. The 2019 vintage was generally considered to be very good in Piedmont, although not as uniformly excellent as 2016 or 2015. However, Bruno Giacosa`s commitment to quality and selective grape sourcing usually ensures a high-quality product regardless of vintage variations.
