2020 Cordero di Montezemolo 'Funtani' Barbera d'Alba Superiore Piedmont

(93 points) The organic Cordero di Montezemolo 2020 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Funtanì is a darkly concentrated red wine with a rich bouquet and a savory side that recalls leather and cured tobacco. Its fruity side shows baked plum and dried blackberry. This is an especially enriched red wine with ample textural power from 70-year-old vines in La Morra's Annunziata. It reveals more complexity and freshness as it opens in the glass. Production is 9,000 bottles. Monica Larner, Wine Advocate (Aug 2023)
