High-toned, herbal aromas lead to an expressive core of fruit as the 2006 Barbaresco Tulin opens up in the glass. The Tulin possesses excellent length and a soft, harmonious close. Only a slight greenness in the bouquet detracts from the wine’s overall balance. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2018. Giorgio Pelissero is a young, passionate producer based in Treiso. As outstanding as the Barbarescos can be, I find just as much pleasure in his Dolcettos and Barberas, which are among the finest in the region. From top to bottom, this is a first-class set of wines.
