Price-conscious PERTINACE BARBARESCO NERVO 19

A small cooperative of only 15 growers, Pertinace is located in the village of Treiso in the heart of the Barbaresco zone. Founded in 1972 by Mario Barbero, the winery works with growers who tend to some of the nest crus in this commune, including 'Nervo' and 'Marcarini', for the production of Barbaresco. Their members also cultivate other famous local varieties, such as Barbera and Dolcetto, as well as Moscato d'Asti. All totaled, the growers manage 170 acres of vines in this area.

Tasting Notes:
Barbaresco Nervo is an outstanding red wine that showcases the complexity and character of the Barbaresco region. It displays a deep garnet-red color, indicating its maturity and depth. The nose is greeted with enticing aromas of ripe dark fruits, dried herbs, spices, and a touch of leather. On the palate, it offers a harmonious and well-structured experience, with flavors of black cherry, plum, licorice, and hints of tobacco. The refined tannins provide a smooth and velvety texture, while the vibrant acidity adds freshness and balance. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of fruit, spice, and a touch of earthiness.
