La Spinetta, 2018 Barbaresco “Bordini”

A beautifully expressive Barbaresco from the Bordini vineyard in Neive, the 2018 Bordini showcases Nebbiolo with aromatic lift, elegance and classical structure in the unmistakable La Spinetta style.

Tasting NoteThe nose is fragrant and refined, offering aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, layered with rose petal, dried herbs and a gentle hint of spice. On the palate, the wine is supple yet focused, with bright acidity carrying flavours of crimson fruit, orange peel and subtle earthy minerality. Fine, polished tannins give shape and length, leading to a long, savoury and well-balanced finish.

Food PairingA natural partner for braised veal, roast poultry, mushroom and truffle dishes, rich pasta sauces and aged hard cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano or Castelmagno.

Serving & CellaringServe at 16–18°C. Decant for 45–60 minutes before drinking. Drinking well now with air, and will cellar confidently for 12–18 years.

Why We Love ItBordini offers a more approachable, elegant expression of Barbaresco, and La Spinetta captures this beautifully. Aromatic, food-friendly and refined, it’s a superb introduction to top-quality Nebbiolo from Piedmont.
