Prunotto Barbaresco Bric Turot | 2022 | 750ml

About This Wine

Bric Turot is a five-hectare vineyard in Barbaresco whose name means the top of a small hill in Piedmontese. It sits on marly soils at about 200 metres, facing south-east to south-west, and Prunotto bought it in 1997.

Prunotto traces its roots to a growers' cooperative founded in 1904, which Alfredo Prunotto took over in 1923 and renamed. Under Beppe and Tino Colla from 1956 it became one of the first houses in the Langhe to bottle single vineyards separately, starting with Barolo Bussia and Barbera d'Alba Pian Romualdo in 1961. The Antinori family has run the estate since the 1990s.

Serving

Serve at 60 to 65°F, and decant young bottles for an hour or two. Pairs with grilled beef or venison.

About Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo pairs delicate red fruit and floral aromatics with a firm, tannic, long-lived structure. Its cool Piedmont home sharpens its tannic, aromatic profile.
