Descrizione

Elegant and measured, this Barbaresco 2020 presents Nebbiolo at its most aristocratic: aromas of ripe red fruits intertwine with hints of dried rose, light earthy notes and a touch of sweet spice. The nose is clear but not intrusive, with a freshness that supports the aromatic complex and leads to a sip that remains controlled without forcing. The texture is fine, the overall tone sober and refined.

On the palate it confirms balance and sapidity: the entry is lean, the tannins are present but carefully worked, giving structure without harshness. The persistence is pleasant and gives space to a finish that recalls red fruit aromas and light spicy nuances. Excellent with roasted meats that are not overly fatty, light braises, mushrooms and aged cheeses; it deserves a short decant if served now and can gain further complexity with a few years in the cellar.

Winery history

The estate, known locally as Cascina Casotto, has been tied to the Vacca family for generations; the family's roots in the area date back to the early decades of the 20th century. The estate takes its name from a centuries-old pine planted by the former owner Domizio Cavazza. In 1997 Renato Vacca, together with his father, launched an independent label after years of collaboration with the Produttori del Barbaresco consortium, marking a shift toward showcasing the local terroir.

Production philosophy

The production approach prioritizes respect for the soil and the vines: careful agricultural practices and winemaking aimed at highlighting the characteristics of the Ovello terroir. The winery combines traditional Langa expertise with contemporary choices in the vineyard and cellar to achieve expressive, balanced wines.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards concentrated on the Ovello hill, near Barbaresco. The site is characterized by relatively cool microclimates and calcareous soils with sandy veins and a good calcium content, ideal conditions for Nebbiolo destined for long-lived wines such as Barbaresco.
