How to serve it
Tasting notes
Deep garnet red. The nose is powerful and dark, with black cherry, plum, tar, liquorice, tobacco and dried rose. On the palate it is full-bodied and enveloping, with dense, muscular tannins, firm acidity and great persistence, finishing on spice and dark fruit. A structured Barbaresco that rewards long cellaring.
About this wine
Produttori del Barbaresco, the growers' cooperative founded in 1958 in the village of Barbaresco, makes this Riserva entirely from Nebbiolo grown in the Montestefano cru (MGA). Its clay-limestone soils and warm exposure give wines of such power that Montestefano is often called the "Barolo of Barbaresco".
Vinification is traditional: fermentation in stainless steel at 30 °C with a 28-day maceration on the skins and malolactic fermentation, followed by a minimum of 30 months in large oak casks of 25–50 hectolitres and bottling in June.
The 2017 is a full, enveloping Barbaresco with great length, built for long cellaring but already impressive with a generous decanting.
