Anyone familiar with the nine vineyard reserves of the Produttori del Barbaresco will know that this co-operative's entry is no concession. Langhe Nebbiolo is made from young vines that are spread across the entire appellation – the same soils, the same families, the same care. What sets it apart from its big brothers is not intention, but time. After two years of prolonged drought, the 2024 vintage began with a refreshingly wet winter that replenished the water reserves in the soil. Spring came early and mild; bud break began around 20 March. What followed was an even, well-tempered growing season – ideal for a Nebbiolo that can be drunk earlier but still has something to say. Vinification in concrete vats at 28 degrees, 20 days of maceration with pumping over twice a day, followed by five months in large oak barrels – this is not a compromise, but a concept.

Ripe red fruit, aniseed and white pepper pour from the glass; medium fullness on the palate, fresh acidity and a tannin that accompanies rather than demands. A Nebbiolo that is an immediate pleasure – and impressively reveals what its origin is capable of. SUPERIORE.DE

"With no crus produced in 2024, the Produttori del Barbaresco co-operative kept the top plots for a single Barbaresco, and the best of the rest was selected for this Langhe Nebbiolo. While it is paler and lighter that recent vintages, it pleases with its purity of perfumes. Quintessential aromas of red rose are nestled into red berries. There are hints of chestnut and black tea on the palate, where the tannins are delicate and silky." Decanter
