100% Nebbiolo grapes
grown in the hills above Barbaresco. Delicate
perfume with aromas of dark cherry and black pepper
and a hint of tobacco from a fine cigar.
Elegant and fully ripe with intense fruit and
wonderful structure and balance.
Aged two years in oak and one year in the bottle,
this wine is drinking very well now
and will age for many years.
100% Nebbiolo, Ovello is one of
the premiere sites in the entire Barbaresco wine
growing region. Perfectly situated in the hills
above the Tanaro River with
S/SW exposure and limestone and sandy soil give
this wine both elegance and intensity. Delicious
now and will age well.
"ruby red intense
color with an edge of pomegranate with a soft scent
of prune, fruit of the forest with a note of
mint....elegant with good tannins, soft and silky,
balanced with fresh acidity and an
intriguing scent of balsamic."
Grown in Barbaresco
and aged six months in large barrels, can aged as
well as be
enjoyed now.
This wine has all of the fruit and spicy
characteristics of the traditional Barbarescos but
it is meant to be consumed young. Complex and
smooth with good structure of fruit and tannins.
The is wine is dangerously easy to drink.
This slightly
frizzante wine is bright, crisp and medium bodied
and is refreshing and
silky smooth on the palate with
a nice blackberry finish.
It is a perfect Summer wine, serve slightly
chilled, it can be paired well with food or served
alone as an aperitif.
Ripe plum and fresh
cherry flavors are supported by nice mineral tanins
which give this wine great elegance.
Let it open and it becomes succulent with a lovely
long finish. This wine will age nicely, but it is
so delicious it is almost too tempting to pass up
decanting it now.
"The Cantina del Pino
Dolcetto has splendid perfume with ruby and garnet
colors with a finesse and an intense and
interesting nose...
with jammy flavor and a hint of black pepper and
soft background of mineral"
Bouquet of fresh summer fruit with good acidity and
a full round finish that makes this wine perfect
for serving with food.
The Cantina
del Pino Albesani Barbaresco is rich, round and
enveloping. Warm southern exposure and a higher
percentage of clay in the soil gives this wine
structure, rich color and ripeness.
There is a wonderful dark red fruit complimented by
spices, dried flowers and roses which add
complexity on the palate.
The intensity of the fruit covers the tannins
nicely, and with time the wine’s power
becomes more evident.
