Wine Description
Embark on a sensory journey with Michele Chiarlo Cipressi 2019, masterfully crafted by winemaker Stefano Chiarlo. This Barbera, rooted in the picturesque vineyards of Castelnuovo Calcea – Mombercelli, unveils a testament to the 2019 vintage’s exceptional conditions.
The autumn-winter season set the stage with ample rain and snow, building a crucial water reserve for the summer. A mild and dry February-March, followed by abundant April-May rains, resulted in balanced vine vegetation. The hot and dry May-June enhanced flavors, leading to a gradual ripening in July. The outcome? A classic vintage with fewer grapes of exceptional quality.
Pouring a bright ruby red, the wine exudes clarity and elegance on the nose. Aromas of violet, blackberries, raspberries, and spicy sweet notes tantalize the senses. On the palate, it unfolds as a full, well-structured symphony, harmoniously balancing fresh softness and a savory, round finish.
Wine critics laud this Barbera, earning it 93 points from Wine Enthusiast, praising its black cherry and plum aromas. Falstaff awards 93 points, highlighting its juicy dark cherry and subtle savory notes. VertdeVin rates it 89 points, emphasizing its fruity and juicy character with a touch of minerality. Wine Spectator applauds its tightly wound, racy profile, showcasing blackberry and violet flavors.
Pair this impressive Barbera with cured meats, pasta with meat sauce, risotto, fillet, guinea fowl, or medium-aged goat cheeses. Serve at 16-18°C to savor the wine’s complexity. Michele Chiarlo’s 2019 Nizza Cipressi Barbera stands as a benchmark, a true embodiment of the unique terroir and meticulous craftsmanship.
