Carlo Giacosa Barbaresco Ovello DOCG 2020

This Barbaresco from Ovello stands as an elegant expression of the Nebbiolo's finesse, with a complex aroma and seductive taste

The wine presents itself with a beautiful garnet red color and a broad, floral aroma that opens up to delicate notes of ripe fruit and subtle spices.

The taste is rich and nuanced with a well-balanced acidity that makes it perfect both for food and as a meditation wine, where its depth really comes to the fore. For optimal enjoyment, we recommend serving it in large, attractive glasses and at a serving temperature of 16-18°C.

The grapes are carefully grown in the Ovello cru in Barbaresco, located at an altitude of 220-240 meters above sea level. The soil consists of compact lime and clay, which gives the wine its unique character. The vineyard has south-westerly exposure, giving the grapes plenty of opportunity to ripen to perfection.

At harvest, the Nebbiolo grapes are lightly crushed and de-stemmed, after which they undergo a temperature-controlled fermentation in steel tanks. The wine is then matured in large oak casks, which gives it depth and structure. After bottling, the wine ages further in the darkness and silence of our cellar until it is ready to be released for sale.
