The vineyard’s calcareous marl soils, ideal southwest exposure, and moderate elevation create conditions that consistently produce Nebbiolo of exceptional perfume, finesse, and balance. While Asili possesses the structure for long aging, it is often distinguished by its graceful texture and aromatic complexity, making it one of Barbaresco’s most captivating crus. The exceptional 2021 vintage delivered wines of remarkable purity, concentration, and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"688\" data-end=\"1143\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"688\" data-end=\"720\"\u003eWinemaking \u0026amp; Technical Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"720\" data-end=\"723\"\u003eProduced only in outstanding vintages, Produttori del Barbaresco’s single-vineyard Riservas are crafted using traditional methods that place vineyard expression above all else.

The result is a wine that combines elegance, transparency, and extraordinary longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1145\" data-end=\"1708\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1145\" data-end=\"1162\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1162\" data-end=\"1165\"\u003eBrilliant garnet in the glass, the 2021 opens with beautifully lifted aromas of rose petal, wild strawberry, red cherry, blood orange, and violet layered with notes of tea leaf, anise, crushed stone, and delicate spice. The palate is refined and seamless, offering vibrant red fruit framed by finely textured tannins and bright, energetic acidity. As the wine evolves in the glass, subtle notes of tobacco, dried herbs, licorice, and earthy minerality emerge, leading to a remarkably long, graceful finish defined by precision and persistence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1710\" data-end=\"2106\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1710\" data-end=\"1736\"\u003eFood Pairing \u0026amp; Service\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1736\" data-end=\"1739\"\u003eA classic expression of Nebbiolo, this wine pairs beautifully with braised veal, roast duck, mushroom risotto, truffle dishes, game birds, and aged cheeses.
