"Rich and intense aromas of ripe plum, mushroom and milk chocolate. Full-bodied, with soft and silky tannins and a delicate, pretty, fruity finish. Hard not to drink now, but better in year or two. Best after 2009. 500 cases made." -Wine Spectator |
Description:
"The Fratelli Cigliuti winery is situated on the Serraboella hill, 350 metres above sea level, overlooking the village of Neive, in the Langhe region of Piemonte, N.W. Italy. Neive is one of the three villages responsible for producing Barbaresco from the Nebbiolo grape. The territory of Langhe is characterised by hills, steep slopes and a predominantly calcareous clay soil. The climate is mainly continental, with important differences in microclimate depending on the site. This terroir brings minerality, complexity, personality and longevity to the wines. The Cigliuti family tend the vineyards themselves, by hand, and in a way which respects the environment. Yields are kept low in order to harvest the finest fruit."
"Produced in Bricco di Neive, these vineyards are south-west facing at an elevation of 350 meters. The grapes are harvested in September. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks and the wine is aged in Slavonian and French oak barrels. This Barbaresco can age for 10-15 years and is a perfect pairing with red meat, game and aged cheeses." -Winery
