Pelissero - Barbaresco Vanotu - 2010 | Italian Red Wine

Barbaresco Vanotu is a red wine made by Pelissero in Piedmont, Italy, with the Nebbiolo monovarietal.

Vanotu is the diminutive in Piedmontese dialect of Giovanni, Giorgio’s grandfather and previous owner of this vineyard. Therefore it is a part of the winery to which they are very fond of. Thanks to the particular climate and exposure of this vineyard, even poor vintages can bring great character and personality in the wines.

The wine is produced through modern and innovative methods (controlled temperatures, mechanical automatic timed and planned mixing) trying to take into the bottle the maximum exaltation of the varietal characteristics of Nebbiolo grapes. Aged for 20/22 months in barriques (80% of them are new) then 9 months in bottles we aim at creating concentration, fruit, soft tannic complexity. The aim is to make an innovative wine trying to maintain and exalt the great qualities of Nebbiolo.
