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. Drink 2026-2040.

The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is a very pretty, silky wine that shows all the signatures of this site in its refined, midweight 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.

The nose highlights aromas of warm strawberry jam, wild thyme, snapped mint and mixed wildflowers slowly emerge. Dark sour cherries sit at the core of the palate as savory herbs and spices swirl about, the fine grained tannins. Vibrant acidity lifts the palate toward the finish as subtle hints of grilled mushrooms provide an umami kick at the last sip. Drink 2025 - 2050.
