Sergio Minuto describes 2020 as a year with normal ripening, similar to 2016. Harvest took place from October 1 to 9. The Barbarescos saw seven days of fermentation in rotary tanks. Aging was 16 months for the straight Barbaresco and 18 months for the vineyard designates. The Moccagatta Barbarescos have long been done in a style that emphasizes textural richness. Even so, I found the 2020s a bit heavy and alcoholic. I did not taste the Cole, as that Barbaresco will now be released as a Riserva.
