One of the best Cooperatives making wine is the Produttori del Barbaresco. Always good, but a few times every decade they nail it and 2006 was one of those. Deep garnet in color, mostly clear and bright. The nose is great with cherries, tar and spice. Medium bodied with lighter tannins. On the palate, this is complex, with good acidity and delicious. Lots of cherry fruit and a nice earthiness. At age 15, it is mature but with time left. Drink over the next seven to ten years. This is nice on its own but will be better with food. Pasta with a mushroom cream sauce will be great.
