Barberani’s 2007 Orvieto Classico Superiore Castagnolo is a pleasant, crisp white with pretty suggestions of flowers, smoke, minerals and peaches. An easygoing, accessible wine, this Orvieto is best enjoyed over the next year or two. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2010.
Barberani makes a wide range of wines from its vineyards in the heart of the Orvieto district. While quality can be somewhat inconsistent across the range, these four wines represent the highlights of the production.
