The Barbaresco DOCG Oddero 1966 is a wine that tells a story rich in tradition and passion, a testament to a time when the art of winemaking in Piedmont was strengthening. Originating from the renowned Barbaresco area, known for its clay and limestone soils, this historic vintage is a perfect expression of Nebbiolo, the emblematic grape variety of the region. In appearance, the wine displays an intense ruby red, with garnet reflections that speak of its years spent in the bottle and an evolution that has enriched its aromatic profile.
In the glass, the bouquet is extremely complex: notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, intertwine with hints of withered rose and sweet spices, highlighting the typical elegance of Nebbiolo. With aeration, earthy and leather notes emerge, signifying a deep evolution and a harmonious aging process. The palate offers a sensory journey: finely polished tannins envelop the mouth, providing a robust yet velvety structure. The present acidity offers balance and a long, persistent finish that reveals hints of vanilla and tobacco.
This Barbaresco from Oddero is the ideal pairing for rich dishes such as braised beef or Barolo risotto, but it can also be enjoyed on its own to fully appreciate its layered flavors. A wine that embodies the history and culture of Piedmont, perfect for those seeking an unforgettable tasting experience. A true masterpiece for the most refined palates.
