Relatively pale with full, ripe nose. Low-key nose but neat and almost drinkable already. Fireworks and tannins on the finish however. (JR)

The 1997 Barbaresco Martinenga exhibits a garnet color with pink/amber at the edge. It is a soft wine with notes of lead pencil, cherry, strawberry, and espresso. While it reveals little mid-palate, extract, or length, it is charming and elegant in a spicy, medium-bodied, fruity manner. Consume it over the next 8-10 years.
