La Ca' Nova Barbaresco Montefico Vigna Bric Mentina 2016 - First Bottle

Reviews

95+ Vinous -
The 2016 Barbaresco Montefico Vigna Bric Mentina is dark, dense, powerful and super expressive. Black cherry, mocha, leather, licorice and menthol are some of the many notes that take shape in a Barbaresco that is bursting with energy. Chalk, orange peel, dried flowers and mint add layers of nuance as the wine opens up in the glass. This brooding, potent Barbaresco needs time to be at its best, but it is clearly a great wine in the making.

Wow. We are in SHOCK at how good these wines are. Madness to even consider skipping this offer. VERY LIMITED! Barbaresco has ARRIVED, people. These wines are off-the-charts and still priced relatively low (compared to Barolo), and if there was EVER a vintage to buy, it is ‘16. "The 2016s, wines from a potentially historic vintage, may very well put Barbaresco on the map big time. As I traveled from producer to producer, I experienced that sense of excitement and energy I always feel when in the presence of important vintages and wines...The late harvest, in October, yielded Barbarescos of extraordinary aromatic intensity, depth and structure that will repay cellaring. Moreover, the wines are deeply expressive of site, which, in my view, is one of the pre-requisites for a truly great Piedmont vintage.” --- Antonio Galloni, VINOUS

La Ca’ Nova has been a savvy insider Barbaresco producer until now. They are making the best wines of their lives here, from two of the most important crus in the region (Montefico and Montestefano) and we must INSIST you get some. Outrageously excellent wines! Read the reviews below and just…HURRY!
