From the prestigious Barbaresco DOCG in Piedmont, Icardi's 'Montubert' is a commanding expression of Nebbiolo grown on the celebrated Montubert vineyard. The 2020 vintage — a warm, concentrated year — yields a deep garnet wine of impressive depth and complexity. Expect captivating aromas of dried rose, tar, dark cherry, and tobacco, layered with hints of leather and dried herbs. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and structured, with Nebbiolo's trademark firm tannins balanced by rich fruit and bright acidity. A long, mineral-driven finish seals a wine built for the cellar, rewarding patience over the coming decade and beyond.
