Angelo Negro Basarin Barbaresco DOCG 2021 - 0,75l

Angelo Negro Basarin Barbaresco DOCG 2021 is a Nebbiolo from Piedmont with cherry, violet, spice and deep Basarin grip for a serious table tonight. It has the classic Nebbiolo perfume, then a darker Basarin line takes over. The bottle feels built for food, patience and a wide Burgundy glass.

About the Wine
The Basarin name gives this 2021 Barbaresco its address. Angelo Negro is rooted in Roero, and this cuvée brings the family’s Nebbiolo into the Barbaresco district of Piedmont. The listed soil for this wine is limestone, clay and tufa. In the glass, that Basarin fruit feels compact with cherry flesh drawn around violet and a dry mineral edge. Nebbiolo is the only grape here. The 2021 vintage gives the wine a clear shape, with fruit that feels ripe and tannin that speaks early. The cellar work follows the Barbaresco DOCG frame. This Angelo Negro Basarin Barbaresco DOCG 2021 receives a minimum of 26 months of aging, including at least 9 months in oak and 4 months in bottle. For this Basarin bottling, the oak reads as baking spice rather than a sweet wood note. The extra bottle time has settled the wine into a silky finish, with the tannin still present and fine-grained. The wine is dry. The bottle carries 14% alcohol and the DOCG mark.

Tasting Notes
Ripe cherry leads the nose, joined by violet and a small note of baking spice that feels tied to the oak aging rather than added sweetness. The palate is dry and measured, with the Angelo Negro Basarin fruit sitting in a darker register than the floral opening suggests. Fine tannins gather across the gums, and the acidity keeps the 14% alcohol feeling steady through the finish. The final impression is silky, with cherry skin, purple flowers and a light tufa-like dryness lingering after the fruit fades. Drink 2024-2034.

Food Pairing
Start in Piedmont with tajarin al ragù, especially a version with veal or sausage that can take the wine’s cherry fruit and firm Nebbiolo tannin. Brasato al Barolo is another natural match, with slow-cooked beef meeting the Basarin bottling’s spice, violet and dry finish. For game, choose roast venison with juniper or hare with polenta, as the wine has enough grip for darker meat. Aged Castelmagno or mature Parmigiano Reggiano will pull out the savory side of this Angelo Negro Barbaresco DOCG 2021.

Producer
Angelo Negro is a Roero family estate with roots in Monteu Roero, and the name appears on bottles that range from Arneis to serious Nebbiolo. The Basarin Barbaresco DOCG 2021 stands out in the range, with a Barbaresco vineyard name placed beside an estate identity formed across the Tanaro in Roero. Family history at Negro is often traced back to the seventeenth century, and the modern cellar still feels connected to that long agricultural memory. This matters in the glass of Basarin, where the wine carries the polish of an established family producer and the firmer stamp of Barbaresco Nebbiolo. The estate’s Roero background gives useful context for this bottle, since Angelo Negro is also known for interpreting Nebbiolo outside the most famous Langhe addresses. On this 2021 label, the concrete details are clear: Nebbiolo, Barbaresco DOCG, the Basarin name, 14% alcohol and an aging regime that includes oak and bottle time before release.
