Bruno Nada's 2004 and 2005 Barbarescos have held up relatively well. I was quite surprised to see the Manzola showing better than the flagship Rombone in both vintages. Much of that can probably be attributed to cooperage choices. The Manzola, which is aged in cask, needs time to blossom, while the Rombone, which is aged in barrique, is flashier at the outset, but also ages at a faster clip. As was the case throughout the region, the 2005s were picked a bit early because of deteriorating weather, while the 2004s are the product of a year with big yields. In hand made wines such as these, the signatures of the respective vintages are evident.

The 2004 vintage was not an easy one for Bruno Nada. A tractor accident in the middle of the harvest luckily turned out to be relatively minor, but it did mean that Nada was forced to adopt a less hands-on approach during the Nebbiolo harvest as well as the early portion of the vinification of the wines that year. In the past I have been an admirer of Nada's wines, often purchasing them for my own cellar. Unfortunately th is set of 2004s is not up to h is usual level of quality.
