Possessing some of the best value in the wine world, Produttori's full range of Barbarescos are known to be routinely outstanding, and never fall short of the hope for each bottle. Even the basic bottling takes juice from the very top crus in the region, all of which in their singular form stand out regularly from their most expensive neighbors.

Produttori del Barbaresco

An estate borne of struggle, the Produttori del Barbaresco is one of the world's greatest co-operatives, in terms of recognition and quality. Though the names of their famous vineyards that stamp the single-vineyard bottlings are known to well-heeled collectors, a majority of those famous vineyards are in fact owned by the 60-some-odd members of the Produttori. In years in which the fruit of one of the top crus is less than entirely perfect, it is de-classified into the flagship "Barbaresco" cuvee; otherwise, we may see up to nine different "Crus" on the famed labels.

Still today, the same traditional methods are employed in the cellars, with a submerged cap over the 18-21 day fermentations, and up to the Riserva-mandated three years in traditional botti. There's no glitz, no glam, and as most things do, we've come back around to enjoying the most traditional and true side of Nebbiolo, which is perhaps best exemplified in the Produttori's wines.

The Ovello vineyard has some northern exposures and generally represents a cooler growing site. You can expect intense fruit flavors and more prominent tannins as a result. The Produttori del Barbaresco 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello fits the bill. Vine growth starts much later and usually lasts longer to produce dark intensity and bold aromas in the wines. In the cold years, the tannins can be aggressive, but in the hot years like 2020, they show better balance. This wine offers ferrous notes of iron and rusty nail followed by cherry-driven sweetness.

The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello is a massive, packed wine. Graphite, crushed rocks, dried herbs and cedar open first. Ovello tends to produce a more linear style of Barbaresco, and that is very much the case here as well. However, the 2020 also possesses notable depth and layers in the mid-palate. It's a gorgeous wine in the making.
