2021 Barbaresco

Tasting notes:

A blend of various plots form the estate’s owned vineyards planted on limestone soil rich in calcium. Aged for 20 months in 50 hl oak casks. Aromas of ripe red berry fruits and cherry with notes of spice and medicinal herbs. Full-bodied with a silky texture from the ripe tannins.

Producer description:

Barbaresco first appeared on a wine label in the 1890s when Domizio Cavazza, headmaster of the Royal Enological School of Alba, created the village’s first cooperative by bringing together nine vineyard owners to make wine in his castle. Now known as Produttori del Barbaresco, the cooperative sources its premium Nebbiolo grapes from 100 hectares of vines and offers some of the best-priced quality wines in all of Langhe.
