Pertinace Barbaresco Marcarini 2004


Produttori di Barbaresco is not the only extraordinary cooperative in Barbaresco; Pertinace, formed in the early 1970s, is producing a few lovely cru level wines. Ethereal and properly delicate, the Marcarini is showing finely sifted earth and pretty nebbiolo notes of white truffles and assorted undergrowth. Classical length along with (malolactic) softness. [**½] $60.
