A medium ruby color, the 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Rabaja comes from vines planted in 1968. It opens in the glass with notes of wild strawberries, crushed roses, leather, and stony earth. Medium-bodied, it has more complexity and good balance, with notes of incense lasting long on the finish. Elegant and refined, with another layer of distinction, it’s going to be a lovely wine to enjoy over the next two or more decades.
