A beautifully polished, boutique Nebbiolo from Barbaresco. It is already on show, with vibrant yet rounded red fruit and floral characters, nuances of umami earth and that overall brightness that makes Nebbiolo so drop dead wonderful. From a family operation that can claim to be the first in Barbaresco. Gorgeous stuff by old hands in the town.


Winery notes (2019 Vintage)
"Made of 100% Nebbiolo grapes grown in the hills overlooking Barbaresco, this wine delivers a delicate perfume reminiscent of dark cherry and black pepper with a hint of tobacco from a fine cigar. Elegant and fully ripe it has a wonderful structure and balance. Aged for two years in the oak and one year in the bottle, this wine is as good now as it will be aged for many years."


94+/100 Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (2019 Vintage)
"The 2019 Barbaresco has a slender, almost fragile personality with small berry tones, wild strawberry and blueberry. The effect is very beautiful, especially the melting tannins that characterize the mouthfeel. The wine is fermented in oak and stainless steel and matures in large oak casks for 24 months. This is a production of 12,000 bottles. Drink 2024-2038."


94/100 Kerin O'Keefe (2019 Vintage)
"Toasted nut, camphor, blue flower and grilled herb aromas mingle with whiffs of French oak. Linear, youthfully austere and elegant, the precise palate features red cherry, licorice and coffee bean alongside tightly woven, fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it bright and energized. Give this time to fully develop."


Antonio Galloni, Vinous
"Humble, down-to-earth, yet intensely driven, the Vacca family are making some of the most exciting wines in the region. Vacca’s holdings are concentrated in and around the Ovello vineyard, a site long noted for its combination of cooler microclimate and poor soils, which give structured, age-worthy Barbarescos. Not only were the wines from Cantina del Pino among the standouts of my tastings, they also happen to be among the best values in Barbaresco. In short, I can’t say enough good things about the wines of Vacca. Readers owe it to themselves to check out this up-and-coming producer."
