'The 2005 Barbaresco Riserva Pajé opens with a blast of tar, menthol and smoke that leads to dark cherries, plums, leather and licorice. This is an especially powerful, shut-down Barbaresco at this stage, but with time in bottle the layers should fill out quite nicely. Today it remains compact and in need of further time in bottle.' Tasted Oct 2009; Drink now - 2030.
