2016 Paitin di Pasquero-Elia 'Sori Paitin Serraboella'

"Bright, energetic and vivid, the Paitin 2016 Barbaresco Serraboella Sorì Paitin (with 15,000 bottles made) wins your heart at the very first sip. The wine shows an outstanding level of purity and Nebbiolo authenticity, with the delicate and fragile nuances that give magic to the grape. It shows a lean-weight approach, but there is plenty of power and lasting intensity that sticks to the senses for many long and pleasurable minutes. The tannins are smooth, silky and integrated. These wines from Luca Pasquero Elia and his family are some of my favorites in this entire report." - 96/100 Wine Advocate
