2021 Olek Bondonio La Berchialla Roncagliette, Barbaresco DOCG, Italy
$93.99
Organic, some biodynamic practices. 100% Nebbiolo from Roncagliette: 50 year-old vines, planted on very heavy clay on top of blue marl, 350m elevation. Fermented in concrete with two months on the skins (submerged cap), then pressed off and moved to large botti for longer élevage (usually two years). Unfined, unfiltered, with moderate amounts of SO2 (10-20ppm max) added just before bottling. This is the powerhouse wine of the domaine, with a palate saturated in black fruit and a highly mineral core, but it never loses its sense of freshness or drinkability.

Newest Barbaresco 💫
With lots of love recently for Nebbiolo of the highest caliber, especially from Piedmont's new guard; it'd be a miss not to mention that some of the best new landings recently have come from Barbaresco.
