Barbaresco Rizzi Riserva Vigna Boito 2016

With Enrico Dellapiana's artwork on the front label, the 2016 Barbaresco Rizzi Riserva Vigna Boito shows impressive depth and character. The wine comes out roaring with fresh acidity and all sorts of currants and wild berries. There is some nice minerality too. This wine is the symbolic future of this estate—tight, sharp and focused—and at this point, it is almost ready to enjoy. Maybe give it just another few years. About 4,600 bottles were released.
