Michele Chiarlo Faset Barbaresco 2021

Soft and delicate and nuanced on the nose, faint floral aromatics extend out the glass. Supple and smooth, gorgeous red berry fruit, pristine in nature, crystalline almost with a chalky, mineral undercoating that gives texture and interest. This has some bite too and tang which is so delightful, offering body but not overt heaviness. Subtle in its display but still offering plenty to get your teeth stuck in to with gorgeous high acidity, succulent and juicy strawberries and a creamy finish. Drinking window: 2026-2032. Score - 94.
