Produttori del Barbaresco Montestefano 2014 is a single-cru Nebbiolo from Montestefano, crafted by the respected Barbaresco cooperative. The 2014 vintage delivers a muscular yet elegant expression of Nebbiolo, with classic soil-driven character and aging potential. Expect a perfume of red fruit, rose, and mineral, building to spice and tobacco on the palate. A refined, ageworthy Barbaresco that pairs well with braised beef, game, truffle risotto, and aged cheeses.
