The 2010 Barbaresco Vie Erte hits the palate with serious tannins and structure. Here the flavors are intense, alive and wonderfully nuanced. Dark red and black stone fruits, leather, smoke and savory herbs form an attractive tapestry of nuances in an attractive, cellar worthy Barbaresco endowed with a cool sense of tension and energy that will delight classicists Drinking range: 2017 - 2031 Rating: 94 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Oct 2014)
Cigliuti
Sisters Claudia and Silvia Cigliuti took over the running of this vineyard from their father Renato. He was the first member of the family to begin bottling his own wine, back in 1964, roughly the same time as other pioneers in the region like Giacosa, but the family can trace its roots on this land back to the late eighteenth century.
Most of the vineyard and the winery is on the Serraboella hill, looking over Neive from the east, and it is the Barbaresco Serraboella which is the flagship wine of the estate. This hill, composed of calcareous marl and tufa soils, gives classic wines which combine the textural finesse of clay and the length and longevity of wines from limestone. The vineyards are tended by the family, by hand, with low yields to ensure full ripeness every year.
