Giardano is an intimate family operation in Piedmont crafting sublime, elegant wines that showcase the purity of fruit and aroma above all else. This is not a brooding, powerful, dense Barbaresco but rather one which highlights the beauty of restraint. The aromas are divine--tart fresh red berry fruit, spice, earth coupled with an unbelievably sparrowy like weight on the palate. A chillable Barbaresco? Yes, please. Pair with a mushroomy crostini toast.
