    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Piero Busso, Barbaresco, San Stunet, 2013

    From the commune of Treiso a south east facing vineyard at 400m altitude, one of the highest parts of Barbaresco. The soils are mostly limestone with some blue Marl. The site is late ripening, usually picked ten days after the others. All of this makes for a wine of stature, freshness and definition. Racy, clean, chiselled lines, gripping bright red berry, victoria plum and damson fruit. Firm in structure but with a beautifully lifting, vital fruit character. Aged for two years in 25hl slavonian oak casks. 4000 bottles are made.

    ABV:
    14%
    92/100

    The 2018 Barbaresco San Stunet is a deep, mysterious wine. Dark red cherry, spice, leather, tobacco, incense and dried herbs build as this potent, virile Barbaresco gradually opens in the glass. There's a lot going on in the San Stunet. As is often the case, this Treiso Barbaresco has quite a bit to offer.
