Thank you! I love red fruit flavors, esp sour cherry!

I went to Piemont 2 years ago and became a fan of Barbaresco. I was able to visit tenuta Cucco and their lineup is amazing! The highlight of the trip was tasting Rocche Dei Barbari just across the street from Produttori in Barbaresco town. But they only make direct sales. You just can't find them on shops.

Ahhh nice that you visited both of them!

I had that 2020 Ceretto Barbaresco about a month ago, and was thoroughly impressed. Just outstanding - and the rest of my family, who are not necessarily nebbiolo fans, also loved it.

Love Nebbiolo! Just had a bottle of the 2018 Pio Cesare Barolo the other night! The Produttori del Barbaresco is also one of my favorites.

Nice video. Always fun with the blind tastings and reveal. One of my favorite Nebbiolos and one I dare you to try is from Roero. It is the Matteo Correggio Roche d’Ampsej Riserva at around 40 €. It is a beautiful wine made in sandy soils so it is more soft and early drinkable than most Barolos.

Such a cool tasting! Must have been fun doing this. Added several of these to my list! Love Damilano, can't wait to try their 2016 Cannubi after also loving the Lecinquevigne. Need to drink more Produttori...my other favorites are Luigi Baudana and Giovanni Rosso as I most enjoy Serralunga

This is a great video, I've had a few Nebbiolos, but I'm far from being an expert on them. To know that you struggle to tell the difference between Barolo and Barbaresco tells me that for food pairings they're probably interchangable.

@drmatthewhorkey

They are definitely interchangeable with food!

Love nebiollo and all things Pietmonte. Unfortunately budget does not allow me to try many but Guilia Negri is a favourite producer.

Most perfume n silky wine I’ve tasted . Definitely need to stock up more b4 price go crazy .particular like the barolo 19 over the 16 !

Yes! I do have a Value Piemontese RED WINE video coming out soon (for those that don't want to pay for Barolo anymore)

At our wine club we tasted the 2018 Pio Cesare Barolo and Barbaresco at the same time and they tasted extremely similar though the Barolo was a bit more weighty and also had a lot longer aftertaste. Though I have to say that 2019 Produttori easily beats both of those Pio Cesare wines while also being more affordable.

Whaaattt!!??? That stinks

Whenever I'm able to drink a bottle of Barolo or Barbaresco, I think: "I could live off of that thing and dispense with food for the rest of my life". I love it, and I have one from 2018 (Paolo Scavino) in my cellar, and thanks for the tip...I won't be storing it for long.

Enjoy it! They are special wines for sure

Really love Piemonte, the landscape, the food and wine. But I really don't get the price point of Barolo and Barbaresco anymore. The quality does not match the price. But there are other great wines in the area and I will keep coming back to Piemonte and the areas around there (lake Como and the coastline in the south)

​@@drmatthewhorkeyDefinitely, that's the "problem" 😊 but gonna pick up a few bottles of Produttori del Barbaresco 2019, it's only 37 USD here, which actually sounds good considering your thoughts of it 😊 Thank you for always delivering great content! Keep up the blind/semi blind tastings, they are very appropriated

you mentioned a tasting club/group in this vid - might be interesting to know how u set it up and do it - who is in the group and why - how serious or not serious you are - the frequency of meetings - how do pay for the wines - is best to invest in a Coravin so you don't drink it all, or do you drink it all!! - how many people are to few or to many - etc.....a primer video for folks - thanks!
