    Vanotu is the great single-vineyard Barbaresco of the house – a wine with origin at its core and concentration in its expression. The grapes come from the historic Basarin vineyard in Neive, a cru parcel with south-west exposure and steep limestone marl soils, which not only give the Nebbiolo depth, but also structure and vertical tension. The name "Vanotu" is a dedication to Giovanni (Vanotu) Pelissero, grandfather of the current winemaker – a family foundation to which this wine owes its independence. The wine is matured with sensitivity: around 20 months in barriques, some of which are new, precisely matched to the character of the vintage. No dominant wood notes, but a framework that gives the grape variety space and direction.

    Dense ruby colour with a garnet-red shimmer in the glass. The bouquet is very ripe and rich in detail: wild cherry, violet, liquorice, cinnamon, dried herbs, a hint of tar and stone. The impression is clear: lots of substance, finely composed. Powerful but controlled on the palate, with ripe tannins, animating acidity and cool fruit that slowly unfolds. The wine remains present for a long time, full-bodied, precise, with mineral depth.

    Vanotu is not a restrained Barbaresco, but one with presence, inner tension and great potential for development. A Nebbiolo that does not demonstrate, but convinces – over the years, more and more with each year of ageing in the bottle. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Well-marked by new oak notes of vanilla and toast, this red is dense and powerful. Cherry, plum, earth, eucalyptus and tobacco are at the core, and the spicy finish turns more elegant. Just needs time to absorb the oak." Wine Spectator

    "The Barbaresco Vanotu 2021 is another powerful wine from Giorgio Pelissero. An explosion of dark cherries, blackberries, chocolate, new leather, liquorice and cloves makes a strong first impression. This brooding, tannic Barbaresco has a striking inner sweetness and resonance, but needs time to show its best side." Vinous
