Barbaresco from Treiso, where slightly sandier soils give Nebbiolo more perfume, more red fruit and finer tannins than the zone's heavier expressions — when our team first tasted here, the tannins were so fine they seemed almost sweet. Manzola is a historic Treiso site; Nada's parcel was planted in 1998 at 230 meters on calcareous clay with sandy outcrops, facing southwest. Bruno Nada left a career teaching hotel management to start the estate in 1982, naming it for his father Fiorenzo, and his son Danilo works alongside him now. The wine macerates about 25 days in stainless steel, then spends two years in cask and another six months in bottle before release. 2016 was one of the great modern Piedmont vintages — long, even ripening, deep perfume, ripe and firm tannins — and at ten years this is just moving into its stride: decant it now or hold it another decade.

"The 2016 Barbaresco Manzola is a brilliant wine. Freshly cut flowers, sweet red berries, mint, chalk and white pepper all pulse through the 2016. A Barbaresco of energy and tension, the 2016 is a bit nervous in feel, and yet it also has terrific depth, not to mention exceptional balance. The 2016 is one of the finest Manzolas I can remember tasting. In this range, the Manzola is distinguished by its saline minerality and drive." —Antonio Galloni

Braised beef in Barbaresco, tajarin with butter and sage, agnolotti del plin, veal shank, or aged Castelmagno.

Rose, red cherry, dried herbs and a hint of tar. Medium to full-bodied, with high acidity and firm but silky tannins, finishing long and savory with a touch of licorice.
