About This Wine
Muncagota (also spelled Moccagatta) is one of the nine single vineyards the cooperative bottles as Riserva, known for a bright, spicy style.
In great vintages the cooperative bottles single-vineyard Barbaresco from nine classic sites as Riserva, aged for about four years before release. In other years that fruit goes into the classic Barbaresco blend.
Produttori del Barbaresco is a cooperative founded in 1958 in the village of Barbaresco, with roots in a growers' cellar set up there in 1894. Its member families farm more than 100 hectares of Nebbiolo, roughly a sixth of the appellation, and the cooperative makes only Nebbiolo.
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.
