Only 3,000 bottles are made.
95 Points, Robert Parker Wine Advocate "Lean in appearance with light ruby transparency, the Cantina del Pino 2020 Barbaresco Albesani (with 3,000 bottles created) shows savory notes on the bouquet with fresh berry fruit enhanced by smoke, tar and dark licorice. The wine also offers a more pronounced mineral note that frames a core of sweet fruit. The wine's intensity and its overall depth is very nicely played in this vintage. The Albesani site has typical Sant'Agata marl soils of sedimentary and marine origin (complete with fossils)"- Monica Larner, Jan 2025
17.5/20 Points, JancisRobinson.com "Neive. Palish ruby. Concentrated and finely perfumed nose. Real class and depth. A core of raspberry fruit woven into finely chiselled tannins. Succulent and tightly knit on the finish." Aug 2024
Description
94 Points, Wine Enthusiast" "Like a beautiful piece of art that reveals new depths with each encounter this wine opens with aromas of warm, macerating strawberries with freshly cut mint and thyme. Notes of roses add a touch of refined beauty to the composition. Initially, the wine seems delicate and understated, but as it breathes, its true depth and complexity shine through as mixed wild berry preserves harmonize with savory notes of dried leaves and fresh porcini, while a chalky, salty minerality adds an intriguing dimension to the wine. The tannins are as elegant as a perfectly tailored suit, perfectly balanced by vibrant acidity that keeps the wine engaging and dynamic. Drink form 2025 onward"

ABOUT THIS BRAND
Cantina del Pino
The Vacca family has been living and working the vines at Cantina del Pino, one of the oldest estates in Barbaresco, since the 1920s when Giuseppe Vacca, bought the property from his friend, the legendary agronomist and director of the Royal Enological School in Alba, Domizio Cavazza.
The family's vineyards are concentrated around the Ovello hill. The site is known for its combination of cooler microclimate and unique soils blending limestone with sandy veins and a high calcium content, the perfect conditions for an elegant, age-worthy Barbaresco.
