This estate has long been known for producing supremely elegant Barbarescos that showcase the quintessential floral perfume of nebbiolo, but my impression is that cellarmaster Jeff Chilcott, who is from New Zealand, and enologist Marco Dotta have taken the wines to a higher level of concentration in recent vintages. The 2007 harvest here was squeezed into 25 days (compared to six weeks for the 2006), and Chilcott describes the estate's '07 Barbarescos as rich and strong but fruity and open. Chilcott and Dotta agree that 2006 brought more classic wines.

Marchesi di Gresy gets a lot of attention for their Barbarescos, and rightly so, but the entry-level wines are made with just as much care as the higher-end bottlings.
