Produttori del Barbaresco Barbaresco 2022

$4499 $4999

Produttori del Barbaresco is one of the top wineries of Piedmont, a cooperative of growers who pool fruit from the heart of the Barbaresco appellation. This is the Normale, the entry into their range, built from estate Nebbiolo across the zone. Like the great entry-level Nebbiolos of the region, it overdelivers: bright cherry fruit, gorgeous aromatics, and the firm-but-fine tannins that make Barbaresco such a joy. The 2022 is approachable enough to enjoy young yet has the backbone to reward a few years in the cellar. The obvious choice while you wait for the single-vineyard Riservas to mature, and a benchmark for what classic, traditionally made Barbaresco should taste like.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2022 Barbaresco is a pretty rich, heady wine. Dark cherry/plum fruit, cloves, licorice and mocha build as the 2022 shows off its considerable depth. This is one of the few 2022s that is quite resonant texturally. The aromatics could be more lifted and the tannins could use a bit more polish, but those qualities were next to impossible to come by in 2022. The inclusion of some juice from Riserva lots is a great help. All things considered, this is a stellar showing." —Antonio Galloni

"The straight 2022 Barbaresco from Produttori del Barbaresco is fragrant and refined, with aromas of blue flower, red berry, citrus and a balsamic whiff of eucalyptus. Surprisingly fresh and juicy for the hot, extremely dry vintage, it boasts flavors of tart red cherry, orange zest and star anise alongside taut, refined tannins that leave some grip on the finish. Drink through 2030." —Kerin O'Keefe

More about Produttori del Barbaresco

The Produttori is Barbaresco’s benchmark producer. A huge share of the village’s best farmers, representing virtually all of its best terroirs, bring their fruit to the co-op. It is hard to be admitted to the co-op. There is a waiting list; only a few make it.

Once you are in, the rules are strict. You don't get to hold back any wine for your own labels. This isn't a region where growers ship off their second best to the co-op and put their pride and joy in their own luxury bottles. You have to meet strict quality controls, of course. The Produttori is only devoted to quality-minded farmers with incredible terroir giving their all.

The winemaking is likewise next level. Aldo Vacca, the co-op’s general manager, is one of the wine world’s greatest artists. If you ever have the opportunity to meet and taste with him, take it; he is also one of the wine world’s great communicators.
