The power of Barbaresco's Asili vineyard comes through in Ca' del Baio's clean and elegant bottling from the outstanding 2021 vintage! With a more rounded nose and mouthfeel than their Autinbej blend, it still carries a lifted character, with pungent spice notes, and a bit of tension between. It also shows a bit of extra concentration into the finish. Ca' del Baio is running strong!
JAMES SUCKLING 96 POINTS - "Strawberries, watermelon, pomegranate, fresh violets and a lot of orange peel. Then the full-bodied palate shows pinot-like elegance, almost silky tannins and great concentration of fruit, with rhubarb notes, fierce tannins that are elegant and ripe, refreshing acidity and a long, precise, polished aftertaste. Drink or hold."
