Barbaresco docg Produttori del Barbaresco 2018

The Barbaresco docg Produttori del Barbaresco is endowed with balance and harmony, and it is obtained thanks to the selected Nebbiolo grapes, deriving from different vineyards situated in the area around Barbaresco. This Barbaresco wine presents the characteristic dark red colour, with some orange reflexes, while the smell is elegant and refined, in addition to some hints of plum and mature cherry, spices, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon. Thanks to its warm, charming and intense taste, the Barbaresco docg Produttori del Barbaresco is perfect in combination with roast or braised beef, game and seasoned cheeses.

The birth of the company dates back to 1894 thanks to Domizio Cavazza, which was the headmaster of the Enological School of Alba and the owner of the Castle of Barbaresco and the adjoining farm. Domizio Cavazza founded the Cantine Sociali of Barbaresco for "the production of luxury wines and meals", bringing together 9 families of winemakers and starting to vinify Nebbiolo grapes in the cellars of the Castle. He began to call the wine produced with the name of the district: this is how tradition wants that Barbaresco wine was born. Another important date is 1958, the year in which Don Fiorino Marengo, parish priest of Barbaresco, gathered 19 winegrowers and founded the "Produttori di Barbaresco". The Produttori del Barbaresco currently is one of the most prestigious winery of Langhe region  and is a cooperative that brings together more than 50 winegrowers, counting more than 110 hectares of vineyards cultivated with Nebbiolo vine.
