TASTING NOTES

This is the wine for those moments when patience turns into pure reward. The Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco Paje Riserva 2017 is a stunning expression of Piedmont’s legendary Nebbiolo, harvested from the “evergreen vineyard” known for its cool exposure and distinctive limestone soils that keep the wine fresh and vibrant, even after years of aging.

On the palate, expect a beautiful dance of bright red cherries with whispers of dried herbs and a subtle floral lift, all wrapped in delicate earthiness and a spicy finish. The balance of lively acidity and refined tannins makes this Riserva both elegant and structured, promising incredible complexity as it matures.

Enjoy this Riserva when you’re ready to elevate a special dinner or celebrate a milestone—you’ll find it pairs flawlessly with rich roasted meats or aged cheeses. It’s the kind of wine that invites you to pause and savor the depth of time and place, making every sip a memorable occasion.

The 2017 Barbaresco Riserva Pajè is impressive on all fronts, but especially in terms of aromas. There's so much brightness here with red and purple fruits, rust and a dark note of clove or exotic spice. No element is out of place, but together they help to build the intensity of this balanced wine. It shows a soft, velvety texture, and perhaps there is a little more ripeness overall in this warm vintage.

The 2017 Barbaresco Riserva Pajè is a fine choice for readers who enjoy wines of freshness, verve and energy. Dark fruit, menthol, spice, pine and crushed rocks are beautifully delineated. This is an especially chiseled wine in the range of 2017 Riservas. I very much like the balance of richness and vibrancy. In a word: classic.

Balsamic aromas of camphor oil and new leather unite with mature dark-skinned fruit. Smooth, full-bodied and offering a weightless concentration, the palate offers raspberry, cherry marinated in spirits and star anise framed in firm, fine-grained tannins that grip the close.

Leads with a whiff of freshly mown hay, which leads to cherry, currant, tar and eucalyptus flavors. Linear and chewy, with hints of underbrush and iron on the lingering finish.
