{"product_id":"2023-massolino-barbaresco-albesani","title":"2023 Massolino Barbaresco Albesani","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe 2023 Massolino Barbaresco Albesani is an elegant Piedmontese Nebbiolo from the renowned Albesani cru in Neive, one of Barbaresco’s most distinguished sites. The vineyard’s south-western exposure and calcareous marl soils give the wine a graceful combination of perfume, ripe fruit and mineral structure. It shows red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry alongside rose petal, violet, liquorice and subtle earthy spice. The 2023 vintage brings generous fruit while retaining Nebbiolo’s natural freshness and aromatic lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn the palate, it is medium to full-bodied and finely structured, with vibrant acidity, polished tannins and layers of red and dark fruit. Cherry and raspberry are complemented by wild strawberry, violet, dried flowers, liquorice and gentle tobacco and earthy notes. A fine mineral character adds tension and length, while the tannins provide a firm yet elegant framework. The wine remains energetic and focused through the mid-palate, leading to a dry, long and persistent finish with lingering red fruit, floral, savoury and spicy notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Barbaresco drinkers who enjoy fragrant Nebbiolo with fine tannins, bright acidity and graceful structure. The 2023 vintage is youthful but already expressive, and should develop greater floral, earthy, tobacco and truffle complexity with bottle age. Best enjoyed over the next 6–12 years. Decant for 1–2 hours when young. Pair with tajarin with porcini, veal with mushroom sauce, roast duck, braised beef cheek, truffle risotto, or aged Castelmagno and other Piedmontese cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eInfo\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 99.9828%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.0041%;\"\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 48.915%;\"\u003eItaly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.0041%;\"\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 48.915%;\"\u003eMassolino\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.0041%;\"\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 48.915%;\"\u003eNebbiolo\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.0041%;\"\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 48.915%;\"\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.0041%;\"\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 48.915%;\"\u003e2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 51.0041%;\"\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 48.915%;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Massolino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67894814572859,"sku":"26343-750","price":244.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2023MassolinoBarbarescoAlbesani.jpg?v=1793741749","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2023-massolino-barbaresco-albesani","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
