How to serve it
Tasting notes
Bright garnet red. Fragrant nose of red cherry, raspberry, violet, dried herbs and a hint of liquorice. The palate is fruit-forward and comparatively light on its feet for a Riserva, but underpinned by firm, powerful tannins and lively acidity, with a long, clean finish of red fruit and spice.
About this wine
Produttori del Barbaresco, the renowned cooperative of the village of Barbaresco, bottles this Riserva from the Ovello cru (MGA), one of the largest and historically most important vineyards of the appellation. Its clay-limestone soils give the wine a tight structure and powerful tannins.
The Nebbiolo ferments in stainless steel at 30 °C with 28 days of maceration on the skins and malolactic fermentation, then rests for at least 30 months in large oak casks of 25–50 hectolitres before bottling in June.
Ovello tends to be the most fruit-driven and relatively lighter in character of the cooperative's Riservas, yet it is supported by a firm backbone that lets it age gracefully for many years.
