The 2018 Barbaresco Nervo shows extra ripeness with aromas of dried strawberry or wild cherry, which is unexpected because this was a coolish growing season in Treiso. On the palate, the wine is short and simple really, with light tannins and good acidity. There's just not that much intensity in this Nervo, but it still works fine with a side of fried eggplant, or the like, to assist you with the 15% alcohol content. This is a release of just 2,400 bottles.
