Punset Basarin Barbaresco Riserva is a powerful expression of Nebbiolo, hailing from the esteemed Basarin vineyard in the commune of Neive. Pioneering organic winemaker Marina Marcarino crafts this Riserva with a deft hand that exemplifies the rich history and world-renown quality of the Langhe’s terroir. An extended period of maturation in large oak barrels develops layers of complexity while maintaining Nebbiolo’s signature precision and elegance. On the nose captivating notes of dried roses, ripe cherries, and forest floor unfold, intertwining with hints of tobacco, anise, and balsamic. On the palate firm tannins and a lively acidity bring a balance and depth that will evolve for decades with its remarkable aging potential. This Barbaresco Riserva is a testament to Punset’s commitment to sustainable viticulture and traditional winemaking, offering an authentic taste of Piedmont’s rich heritage. Basarin makes any occasion a special one, especially when paired with the famed truffles from the region and is perfect alongside heavier dishes including grilled meats, game, duck, and blue cheese.
