Produttori del Barbaresco - Muncagota Barbaresco Riserva 2019 750ml

The Produttori del Barbaresco, a cornerstone of excellence in Piedmont, reserves its prestigious Riserva bottling for only the most exemplary vintages. This release is dedicated to the Muncagota Cru, a revered single vineyard defined by its calcareous limestone soils and favorable southeast exposure. The resulting wine is celebrated for its distinctive personality, achieving a beautiful balance between power and aromatic finesse.

The 2019 vintage yielded a wine of elegance and intensity. Following a traditional 28-day skin contact period, the $100\%$ Nebbiolo is aged for a minimum of 30 months in large Slavonian oak barrels, allowing its structured body and tannins to integrate gracefully. This extended maturation, a hallmark of the Riserva designation, unveils a complex bouquet of floral hints, brushwood, mint, and eucalyptus. The palate is marked by firm structure, yet the finish is elegant, with balanced ripe tannins. This Muncagota is built for long-term cellaring, promising to evolve over 25 years.
