Description

Barbaresco di Prunotto comes from vineyards in the Barbaresco, Treiso and Neive area, from the most elegant expression of Nebbiolo. An aristocratic but accessible and pleasant wine, aged in large barrels of different sizes to enhance its harmony and softness on the palate.

The 2021 vintage began with a mild winter, albeit rich in precipitation, including snow, which ensured excellent water supply in the soil. The vegetative recovery was regular, with light and limited frosts during mid-April which caused a reduction in production but did not affect the quality of the harvest. Spring began a long period of good weather that continued throughout the summer, where temperatures were recorded without excesses, in line with the averages for the period, with some thunderstorms between June and July. The excellent temperature ranges during the harvest period allowed the grapes to reach an excellent state of ripeness and a good balance in terms of sugar, freshness and polyphenolic content. The harvest began on October 11 and ended on the 14th of the same month.
