La Spinetta Description
The color is dense red. The nose has aromas of pure plum and rose and a hint of spiced mint. The palate shows a density that lifts the plum and red fruit flavors. Finishes long with firm tannins, allowing the flavors to shine.
Ideal with grilled food, sauced and elaborate red meat and wild game.
Blend: 100% Nebbiolo
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
This Barbaresco Vigneto Starderi bursts from the glass with red berries, sweet spices, roses & mint, all of which come together on a powerful, richly structured frame that is the hallmark of Barbareschi from Neive. The Starderi is the most tannic of the estate’s 2007s but it's a wine with significant promise and a long road ahead of very fine drinking.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Loads of juicy fruit on the nose, with raspberries, spices, and hints of mulberries and plums. Full bodied and round, with soft tannins and a dried berry flavor. This is decadent and fascinating.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
A big-boned Barbaresco, this is a bit gangly at first, settling into raspberry, cherry, floral and a hint of tar flavors. Muscular and tannic, contradicting the notion that Barbaresco is lighter than Barolo. Fine length and ripe tannins. Best from 2013 through 2026. 580 cases made.
