Produttori del Barbaresco, Barbaresco Riserva Rabaja, 2008
Rabaja is one of Barbaresco's most celebrated grand crus, a south-facing amphitheater of calcareous marl that gives some of the village's most complete, powerful and long-lived wines, and the Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva from it is among the great values in cellar-worthy Nebbiolo, delicious at 5, 10, 20, even 30 years. Rabaja combines structure and perfume in a way few sites manage. The 2008 was a classic, structured vintage producing traditional, fragrant, age-worthy Barbaresco, and Rabaja from this year had the depth to mature into something special. It's now in a beautiful drinking window, with savory, dried-flower and forest-floor complexity over a still-present tannic frame. Decant generously and enjoy now, or keep cellaring.
