The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Martinenga Camp Gros is a wild, expressive wine. Lavender, sage, menthol, licorice, plum, leather and dried herbs soar out of the glass. This site's classic youthful austerity comes through loud and clear, but the 2020 has an extra kick of mid-palate richness to provide balance. The 2020 spent one year in barrique and 1.5 years in cask. It's one of the most refined editions in recent memory.
