Sold Out
Produttori del Barbaresco, founded in 1958, now has 51 members and controls more than 100 hectares (250 acres) of premium Nebbiolo vineyards in Barbaresco. Each family is in full control of its land, growing Nebbiolo grapes with centuries old skill and dedication. The vinery produces a Barbaresco D.O.C.G., a blend of Nebbiolo grapes harvested from different vineyards, and a simpler Nebbiolo Langhe suited for earlier consumption.
In great vintages, nine single-vineyard Barbarescos are produced from nine classic premium sites within the Barbaresco village boundaries: Asili, Rabajà, Pora, Montestefano, Ovello, Pajè, Montefico, Muncagota, and Rio Sordo. These are the geographical names of sites where Nebbiolo grapes have always been cultivated. The name of the single-vineyards, the total number of bottles produced, and the name of the owners of the vineyards are marked on the labels.
The Produttori del Barbaresco, which vinifies only Nebbiolo grapes, produce around 550,000 bottles (45,000 cases) per year. In a good vintage they are divided among Barbaresco (50%), single vineyard Barbarescos (30%) and Nebbiolo Langhe (20%)
This is a fantastic everyday drinking Nebbiolo from the reference producer and best value in all Barbaresco. This wine always delivers and is a true expression of a Langhe Nebbiolo from a producer that only works with the Nebbiolo grape.
"The 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo is a bright medium red color and is very pretty and spiced on the nose with aromas of white pepper, wild strawberries, and floral perfume. This is still entirely made from Barbaresco fruit and was rested for 4 months in large barrel. The palate is refined and medium bodied, and the wine is salty and fresh, with chalky, fine tannins, and an elegant citrusy finish. Drink now or over the coming 5-6 years." - 90 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
"This wine was bottled approximately one month before I tasted it in October and was set to hit the market in November 2024. The Produttori del Barbaresco 2023 Langhe Nebbiolo shows a shiny ruby appearance and offers crunchy fruit flavors with blueberry and tart raspberry. Fruit is collected from the sites and the warmer microclimates that don't end up in the Barbaresco program, and the wine sees a shorter maceration time, lasting 21 days." - 92 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
