The Vacca family, and their vineyard, have been a part of Italian winemaking for over 100 years and their estate is one of the oldest in Barbaresco. Renato Vacca, winemaker and owner of Cantina del Pino, has worked year round in vineyards from the time he was a young boy and understands that without superior grapes you can’t make superior wine. If you have not experienced Cantina del Pino, you must as these are super compelling wines. The Albesani offers a slender and accessible personality, with light touches of menthol and herbs that add focus and linearity to the bouquet. At its core, this pretty Nebbiolo from Neive shows delicate and graceful fruit tones of wild strawberry and red currant. Background aromas include ash, licorice and crushed stone.
