Description

The Barbaresco Riserva Vigna Santo Stefano by Castello di Neive is an authentic expression of the great winemaking tradition of the Langhe. It is a wine of rare elegance, identity, and longevity, crafted from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the historic Santo Stefano vineyard within the Albesani cru, one of the most prestigious in the area. Produced only in the finest vintages, it results from meticulous winemaking that includes long aging in large oak casks, in keeping with the classic Barbaresco style. In the glass, it shows a bright garnet color, offering broad and complex aromas: notes of ripe red fruits, dried rose, fine spices, hints of tobacco, leather, and a subtle balsamic nuance. On the palate, it is elegant and deep, with silky, perfectly integrated tannins and a freshness that supports a long, harmonious progression. The finish is persistent and refined, with spicy and floral echoes. A wine of remarkable structure, capable of evolving beautifully over time, it is an ideal choice for those seeking a Barbaresco of great finesse and personality. Barbaresco Riserva Vigna Santo Stefano by Castello di Neive pairs perfectly with red meats, braised dishes, game, and aged cheeses.
