title: Tenuta Carretta 2005 Bordino  (Barbaresco)
description: Bordino is a traditional wine with some of the sharpness and nervous edginess you find in older Barbarescos. The nose is redolent of road tar, root beer, dried spice, ginger and a touch of white truffle. You really need food with this wine otherwise its tight tannins and power can be overwhelming. Drink after 2012.
variety: Nebbiolo
