The La Trava Mossiere Barbaresco 2020 is a refined expression of Nebbiolo from the prestigious Barbaresco appellation in Piedmont, Italy. Known for its elegance, complexity, and aging potential, Barbaresco wines are made from Nebbiolo grapes, which thrive in the region's unique terroir of clay and limestone soils. The 2020 vintage is noted for its balance of ripe fruit and vibrant acidity, producing a Barbaresco with depth, structure, and excellent aging potential.

Appearance: Bright garnet red with slight orange reflections, characteristic of Nebbiolo’s classic hue.

Aroma: The nose is complex and fragrant, offering aromas of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and rose petals, interwoven with savoury notes of dried herbs, leather, and a hint of tobacco. There are also earthy undertones, alongside delicate hints of spices like anise and clove, and a touch of dried flowers and tar that give Barbaresco its signature depth and intrigue.

Taste: On the palate, this Barbaresco is medium-bodied and silky, with flavours of red fruit such as cherry, raspberry, and cranberry, balanced by firm, finely integrated tannins. The acidity is bright and fresh, giving the wine a lively, elegant character. Savoury notes of leather, tobacco, and earth complement the fruit, while subtle spice and floral elements add complexity. The structure is elegant, with a minerality that speaks to the region’s terroir.

Finish: The finish is long and balanced, with lingering notes of red fruit, rose petals, and earthy spice, showcasing the wine’s depth and its potential for aging over the next decade or more.

Food pairing: This Barbaresco pairs beautifully with traditional Piedmontese dishes such as tajarin pasta with truffles, braised beef, or osso buco. It also complements roasted meats like lamb or duck, and mushroom-based dishes like wild mushroom risotto. Aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano or Pecorino also enhance the wine’s complexity, making it a versatile companion for a range of flavours.
