Description
In a nutshell:
A very approachable Nebbiolo from a top Piedmontese Cooperative.
The lowdown:
A very approachable Piedmontese Nebbiolo from the top co-operative of the region. Piedmont is Nebbiolo country famed for Barolo among others, but the Langhe DOC certainly shouldn't be overlooked and top producers such as the Barbaresco co-op produce excellent examples ready for early drinking. This is medium bodied with good acidity, fine tannins, bright red berried fruit and a hint of aniseed and pepper.
The Producer:
Situated between the Piedmontese towns of Alba and Asti Produttori del Barbaresco is a peerless co-operative that can take a lot of credit for helping the Barbaresco DOCG gain a reputation not far short of its neighbour Barolo. In 1958, the priest of the village of Barbaresco, recognizing that the best way for the small properties of the village to prosper was by joining forces, gathered together nineteen small growers and founded the Produttori del Barbaresco. The first three vintages were made in the church basement and then in the winery built across the square from where the Produttori is still located. United once again, the small growers continued the work started by Domizio Cavazza, producing only Barbaresco wine and enhancing both the reputation of the wine and the village. The Produttori del Barbaresco now has more than 50 members and over 100 hectares of Nebbiolo vineyards in the Barbaresco appellation, which amounts to almost a sixth of the vineyards of the area. The highly respected Aldo Vacca has been at the helm for over 25 years.
When to drink:
Very versatile, it's good with red meats, poultry and lightly spicy dishes.
