Barbaresco Riserva DOCG 2000 - Roberto Sarotto

The vintage is the Jubilee vintage and therefore highly sought after. In Barolo and Barbaresco, it was greatly reduced in quantity, which made it clear years later how the hard work in the vineyard can pay off even decades later. The character of the vintage seems softer than 1996 and more similar to the full-bodied and ripe 1997 and 1999.

The Barbaresco Riserva DOCG 2000 by Roberto Sarotto is a wine that captures the essence of tradition and innovation. Produced from Nebbiolo grapes and aged for four years in large Slavonian oak barrels, this wine has been further refined with steel storage until its recent bottling. This unique production method imparts unmatched freshness to the wine. On the nose, you'll discover notes of red fruits and violets, enriched with hints of leather and tobacco. In the mouth, the wine is warm and fresh, with well-balanced tannins refined by time. The structure is harmonious, combining acidity, savory qualities, and body in a seamless blend. Bottled with DIAM corks to ensure impeccable closure, this wine is truly an oenological masterpiece.
