Produttori del Barbaresco is often regarded(and rightly so in my humble opinion)as the best Co-op in the world. With 51 members and 100 hectares, they make some of the best Nebbiolo's in the world. In the best Vintages nine single vineyard Barbaresco's, a Barbaresco D.O.C.G and a Langhe Nebbiolo are made.
The Produttori del Barbaresco 2017 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico is especially broad and thick in texture. It feels generous to the senses, wrapping thickly over the palate with a pretty mix of firm tannins and soft fruit fiber. These elements help to increase both the volume and the persistence of this classic wine. There is some dryness on the finish (and 15% alcohol), and you also taste crushed mineral and stone. Production is 10,000 bottles. I give this wine an edge in terms of future aging potential.
