The drop-dead gorgeous Barbaresco 2019 Asili Riserva from the Produttori del Barbaresco stuns with its extreme finesse and heady scents of wild rose, red berry, camphor, leather and brown spice. Full-bodied and vibrant, the elegant, linear palate delivers red cherry, blood orange, star anise and ground clove alongside youthfully tight but extremely refined tannins. Bright acidity keeps it impeccably balanced and energized, lending great tension. It’s a superb expression of this celebrated site and the fantastic vintage. An absolute stunner. Drink 2029–2044.
"Jeweled ruby/red in color, the 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is elegant but reserved in its aromatics, with notes of fresh cherries, dried roses, and leather that slowly evolve in the glass to reveal hints of mint and balsamic herbs. It offers great structure on the palate and has a bit of nervous energy, but it has a seamless structure, with ripe tannins and a long finish with a lot of balance and persistence. It also has a great dark mineral accent that snaps along the sides of the palate with notes of blood orange and tea leaf. This is going to take some time to come around and open up."-Audrey Frick
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is a very pretty, silky wine that shows all the signatures of this site in its refined, mid-weight personality. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, cedar, mint and tobacco all grace this classy Barbaresco. The 2019 is classic Asili, with firm tannins from the year. - Antonio Galloni
