It is always so tempting to compare Barbaresco with its neighbour, Barolo. But this wine has more in common with Burgundian Pinot Noir. Intense and ethereally perfumed with fresh red fruits and black cherry notes that evolve into scents of wild rose, spices and tobacco as it ages. The palate is gloriously rich. Slightly savoury with dusty tannins and a mouthwatering acidity. A fabulous accompaniment to an earthy, intense mushroom risotto. Shave some truffle on top of course to match the luxuriousness of the wine...
The Cortese family has been protecting and enhancing the region of Barbaresco since 1971. Today, the winery is run by Giuseppe’s children, Pier Carlo, Tiziana, and son-in-law Gabriele, who look ahead with the determination that has always been the Cortese family’s most distinguishing feature. Attentive, rigorous care of the estate’s vineyards, strict selection, a traditional approach to vinification, and a gentle hand with modern techniques are the ingredients that define the unmistakable personality and unique flavours of Cortese’s wines.
