Paitin Barbaresco Serraboella 2019

WA 94 / JS 94 / JD 93 / WS 92 pts

WA 94 pts : With 15,493 bottles produced with fruit selected across this celebrated MGA, the Paitin 2019 Barbaresco Serraboella reaches a perfect pitch between fruit ripeness and acidity. This exacting balance is a hallmark of the vintage. The house style, on the other hand, is focused on elegance, so you really get quite a beautiful drinking experience with this bottle. Red and purple fruits segue to wild rose and red licorice. Best After 2024

JS 94 pts : A velvety and delicious Barbaresco with chocolate, coffee and blackberry aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied with layers of ripe tannins and a long and juicy finish. Reserved at the finish. This needs time to open.

JD 93 pts : The 2019 Barbaresco Serraboella remains elegant while taking on more spiced aromatics in its notes of licorice, red cherry, and blood orange. Possessing balance and linear structure, it has angular yet fine tannins, a fresh spine of acidity, and a great finish. Best After 2023.

WS 92 pts : Dense and marked by a beefy structure now, with currant, strawberry, floral and eucalyptus flavors locked in the grip of burly tannins. Concentrated and finishes long, with vibrant acidity.
