About
the wine
A full bodied and elegant red wine from the Barbaresco zone in the
Langhe area in Piemonte made of 100% Nebbiolo grapes coming from the
Montestefano vineyard of the Produttori del Barbaresco, probably the
worlds best cooperative wineproducer. Their Barbaresco single vineyards
are among the best Nebbiolo wines. A must-have for a true winelover!
All Barbaresco's from the
Produttori are made in a traditional style of long maceration on skins
and refinement in huge botti of Slavonian oak. This specific Barbaresco
is orignating from the Montestefano vineyard.
Pairs very well with stewed meat like brassato or drink with mushrooms
and white truffle seasoned meals.
Drinktemperature is 16-17° C.
Drink until 8 - 12 years after the year of production.
About the
producer
Before 1894, Nebbiolo grapes where sold to make Barolo wine or simply
labeled «Nebbiolo di Barbaresco». But in 1894, Domizio
Cavazza, headmaster of the Royal Enological School of Alba and a
Barbaresco resident, created the first cooperative, the «Cantine
Sociali», by gathering together nine Barbaresco vineyard owners
to make wine in the local castle that he owned.
He understood well the differences between the same grape, the
Nebbiolo, grown in the different areas of Barolo and Barbaresco and,
for the first time, recognized it on the wine label.
The «Cantine Sociali» was closed in the 1920'S because of
fascist economic rules. In 1958, the priest of the village of
Barbaresco, recognizing that the only way the small properties could
survive was by joining their efforts, gathered together nineteen small
growers and founded the Produttori del Barbaresco.
The first three vintages were made in the church basement, then in the
winery built across the square 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 proud past of Barbaresco and the dedication of its creators have
made the Produttori one of the greatest producers in a great
wine-producing area; it... «continues to set some of the highest
standards of wine making for any cooperative in the world».
(Robert M. Parker, Jr.; The Wine Advocate, 2-28-90).
The Produttori del Barbaresco, founded in 1958, now has 56 members and
100 hectares (250 acres) of Nebbiolo vineyards in the Barbaresco
appelation, which is almost 1/6 of the vineyards of the area. Each
family is in full control of its land, growing Nebbiolo grapes with
centuries old skill and dedication. The winery produces a Barbaresco
D.O.C.G., a blend of Nebbiolo grapes harvested in 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, Pajé,
Montefico, Moccagatta and Rio Sordo. These are the geographical
names of sites where Nebbiolo grapes have always been cultivated. The
names 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,
produces around 420,000 bottles (35,000 cases) per year.
In a good vintage they are divided among Barbaresco (40 %), single
vineyard Barbarescos (40%) and Nebbiolo Langhe (20%).
