92 Pts Stephen Tanzer - Vinous Media |
"Moderately saturated medium red. Perfumed nose offers redcurrant, dried rose, cedar and earth. Silky, lush and suave; pliant and light on its feet. I find this brighter and more perfumed than past vintages of this cru. Finishes with firm, late-arriving tannins and noteworthy juicy persistence. I don't recall a better previous vintage under this label." |

"Gorgeous aromas of strawberry, raspberry and flowers. Full-bodied, with soft tannins and a long, velvety finish. Beautiful and rich. Balanced. Best after 2008. 1,400 cases made. -JS" (12/06) |

"The 2001 Barbaresco Riserva Pora is perhaps the least refined of these wines. It is a deeply expressive, masculine Barbaresco that presents a wilder, more animalistic expression of nebbiolo, with underlying notes of macerated cherries, licorice, tar and earthiness and a bold personality defined by its somewhat unpolished tannins. It is a little rough around the edges, but beautiful in its rusticity. This year's Asili is another winner. It opens with an utterly sublime nose that is followed by a lovely core of sweet red fruit, licorice, menthol and mineral nuances that reveal themselves as the wine sits in the glass. Expansive and long on the palate, this deceptively medium-bodied Barbaresco shows awesome purity and enough structure to drink well to age 20, perhaps beyond." |
Description:
Playing a key role in elevating the quality level of Barbaresco over the years, Produttori del Barbaresco produces a simpler Nebbiolo Langhe, a Barbaresco blend and nine single vineyard wines produced in premier vineyards: Asili, Rabaja, Pora, Montestefano, Ovello, Paje, Montefico, Muncagota and Rio Sordo.
This 21 acre single vineyard closest to the Tanaro river. The vines enjoy the heat of the morning sun in the summer and a more fertile soil than vineyards at a higher elevation. This microclimate translates to a Barbaresco with approachable tannins. Pora is best enjoyed in the first 20 years of its life.
The first vintage of Pora was produced in 1967.
Color: Ruby red.
Bouquet: Ripe, broad red fruit with an earthy character.
Flavor: Full-bodied and intense with rich tannins and a long finish.
Pairings: Pairs well with fresh egg pastas, risottos, white meats, red meats, venison and cheeses." -Importer
