Fletcher Barbaresco Faset Cru DOCG 2023
The Wine
David describes Faset has an ‘unparalleled richness’, a trait shared due to the similar soils with Asili, Rabaja and Rio Sordo. Perhaps easier to understand is that it’s the closest wine in David’s bottlings to Barolo in style. In the review tasting of the three wines this Cru definitely has the most fruit and density to the wine, highly aromatic, so much classic tar and roses in this wine.
“Faset is on the same soil as Roncaglie but is just slightly cooler, always kind of picked a little bit after Roncaglie. So, if I said is the Faset has the densest biggest structure of the Cru’s I make, more Barolo than Barbaresco.” David Fletcher
