Description

Manuel’s a young wine producer whose first vintage was 2004. Almost 20 years later, Manuel is insistent on maintaining a two man operation and he makes three wines: Dolcetto d’Alba, Barbera d’Alba and Barbaresco. 

Refreshingly Manuel uses the traditional approach to winemaking! He himself vinifies the Nebbiolo for Barbaresco cement without temperature control .The Barbaresco is then aged in large Slovenian botte for two years. Importantly he only vinifies the grapes that are going into the bottle with his name on it (rather than making wine out of all the crop and selling off any surplus as bulk wine); the rest is sold as fruit. The style of Manuel's wines is sophisticated and eminently drinkable.

Tasting Notes

The wine is gorgeously colored, with pale red rose. The nose beguiles with flowing, haunting, ethereal, it’s pure rose petal, so cleansing, so pretty, so much at ease in its own skin. Rosewater essence. Pinch yourself, this is divine!

Food Pairing

Elevates any braised meat or risotto with porcini mushrooms.
