Produttori del Barbaresco, Barbaresco Riserva “Pora”, 2008
From Pora, a grand cru on the warmer, softer side of Barbaresco, this Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva is single-vineyard Nebbiolo of the kind that's among the best values in cellar-worthy wine anywhere, delicious at 5, 10, 20, even 30 years. Pora's site near the Tanaro river tends to give rounder, more approachable wines with a gentle perfume. The 2008 was a classic, structured vintage that produced traditional, fragrant, age-worthy Barbaresco, and at this point it's entering a lovely mature window where the fruit has given way to dried-flower, leather and forest-floor complexity. This is mature Barbaresco at a fair price, ready to drink now with a decant. Don't wait too long, but there's no panic either.
