Barbaresco Brilliance At A Bargain

by Hugh French | Aug 31, 2023

 

La Ca Nova

 

 

"La Ca' Nova is, in my view, the single most under-the-radar winery in all of Piedmont. The wines just keep getting better and better, yet prices remain exceedingly modest, especially within the context of today’s market... The 2020s are also very fine and pure but appear to have a bit less volume and overall structure. Long macerations with submerged cap fermentation and aging in cask are the norm. In 2020, Rocca shortened the period of extraction by a few days vis-à-vis the 2019s, and also bottled the wines a bit earlier. I left bottles of the 2020s opened for a few days, over which they just got better and better. I can’t recommend these wines highly enough."

La Ca Nova Langhe Nebbiolo

2021 Langhe Nebbiolo DOC
Usually $57 - Special Offer $52

100% organic Nebbioloh and-harvested from 20 year old Barbaresco DOCG vines but cannot be labelled as such due to a release date that is earlier than the appellation requires. Classically styled and approachable, bright cherry and rose aromatics with some forest floor, tar, truffle and taught tannic grip. This wine is handled in much the same way as the Barbaresco DOCG and offers immediate drinking pleasure.

La Ca Nova Barbaresco

2020 Barbaresco DOCG
Usually $94 - Special Offer $85

"The 2020 Barbaresco is a relatively soft, open-knit wine. Sweet macerated cherry, kirsch, mint and orange peel open first, with effusive floral and spice notes that grace the finish. Medium in body, with relatively soft contours for a young Barbaresco, the 2020 will drink well right out of the gate."
91 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com

 

2020 Barbaresco 'Montefico Vigna Bric Mentina' DOCG
Usually $124 - Special Offer $112

"The 2020 Barbaresco Montefico Vigna Bric Mentina is a very pretty wine that captures all the magic of this great site, but without all of the explosive tension of the very best years. I doubt that will matter much to most consumers, though. A beguiling mix of macerated cherry, rose petal, dried leaves and spice builds into a vibrant, salivating finish. In 2020, the Montefico is perhaps just a touch slender, but it makes up for that with its superb energy."
94 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com

 

 

2020 Barbaresco 'Montestefano' DOCG
Usually $124 - Special Offer $112

"The 2020 Barbaresco Montestefano is a dense, plush wine, in other words classic Montestefano. Like all the Barbarescos here, the Montestefano is relatively open, which will surely please readers who can't or don't want to cellar their wines. Dark Nebbiolo fruit intermingled with spice, leather, incense and licorice build into the creamy, resonant finish. The 2020 is a gorgeous wine; the only real problem is that it is not quite the 2019!"
95 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com
