Guido Rivella, Barbaresco Fausoni Vintage:2018 The opulent yet powerful andThe 2016 Barbaresco Fausoni, here in its debut vintage, is powerful and dense, with tons of energy and plenty of reserve. Wild cherry, spice, menthol, licorice and dried herbs gradually reveal themselves, but ultimately, the 2016 is a Barbaresco that needs time to fully come together.
