The palate is rich, with crisp acidity and real minerality, carrying red cherry, strawberry, raspberry, dried rose petals and crushed herbs. Tannins stay firm through the finish. Give it a couple of hours in a decanter if you're opening it now, or leave it in the cellar for another five to ten years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop food pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoast pheasant with sage and butter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBraised beef cheeks in red wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWild mushroom and lentil ragù\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eKate Says\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"I'd pull the cork a couple of hours before dinner and let it breathe in a decanter. This one comes from parcels in the Rabajà and Trifolera vineyards and spends 18 months in big Slavonian oak barrels, so it has plenty of structure. Open one now, and put another away for five to ten years if you can.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eProducer Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGiuseppe Cortese\u003c\/strong\u003e founded the winery in 1971 on top of the Rabajà hill in Barbaresco, building on the family's earlier small-scale winemaking.
