BARBARESCO DOCG - PIEMONTE
Imagine walking through the sun-drenched vineyards of Barbaresco, where the fresh hillside air mingles with the aroma of ripe Nebbiolo grapes. Each sip of Barbaresco is a journey into Piemonte’s refined soul, embodying the land’s beauty, its people’s dedication, and a history shaped by tradition.
In 2021, Roberto produced just 6600 bottles of this exceptional wine, meticulously selecting only the finest grapes to craft a Barbaresco that reflects elegance, balance, and the depth that comes with time.
Grape variety
100% Nebbiolo.
Vineyards of origin

Soil: Clay-limestone soils provide the perfect environment for this grape variety to fully express its potential.
Training system: Espalier with Guyot pruning, 5/6 buds per plant.
Season in the field: The 2021 vintage experienced a rainy winter, ensuring an excellent water reserve. After a cool start to spring, the weather stabilized with sunny days and cool nights, ideal for the maturation of Nebbiolo. The harvest, which began on October 6th, yielded healthy, well-balanced grapes, with smaller berries and a rich polyphenolic content, promising structured and long-lived wines. An exceptional vintage, set to produce complex and refined wines.
Average yield: 60 q/ha.
Vinification
Both fermentation and maturation take place in stainless steel.
Aging: 12 months in 25 hl oak casks by a further refinement of 14 months in bottle.
Tasting notes
The use of large oak casks provides for the traditional Barbaresco Morassino mark with its ruby red color and orange hues and wide round aromas. In the mouth is austere, but the tannins released by the grapes from older plants makes it mellow, softer and long, already fulfilling a few months after is bottled.
