Prunotto Barbaresco 2021 captures the poised elegance of Nebbiolo from the prestigious villages of Treiso and Neive. Its luminous garnet red colour hints at the complexity to follow. The bouquet is vibrant and layered, offering red currant, raspberry, and cherry aromas interwoven with delicate spice notes and dried florals. The oak aging is subtle, enhancing the wine’s roundness without overpowering its varietal purity.
On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied yet refined profile, with velvety tannins and a well-calibrated acidity that drives a long, graceful finish. Silky, noble, and expressive, this Barbaresco is a timeless interpretation of the appellation, offering both immediate pleasure and aging potential.
Ideal with classic Piedmontese dishes such as tajarin with truffle, roasted lamb, or mature cheeses, it can be enjoyed now or cellared for 10–15 years to explore its full evolution.
