Minerdi – Barbaresco Serracapelli – 2022
The 2022 vintage crowns the first production of Barbaresco. Produced in the Serracapelli vineyard, located in the easternmost part of Neive, it enjoys mixed sandy and limestone soils giving the nebbiolos slightly drier and tighter tannins. The vines are more than 30 years old, grown with the rare “Michet” clone of nebbiolo, which gives the wine broader aromas. After being vinified in steel tanks, the wine ages in tonneaux and small oak barrels for 18 months and 18 months in bottles. Limited production of 950 bottles. Barbaresco with beautiful tannic texture and aromas of dark fruit and licorice. Rare bottle.

Description
Minerdi is the new project born in 2020 by brothers Umberto and Simone. The two young men, after having undertaken various winemaking experiences in famous Langa wineries, decided to recover their father’s old vineyards located between Monferrato and Langa, precisely on the border between the towns of Castagnole Lanze and Neive. A bit like in many stories of Langa and non-Langa, the father always limited himself to selling the grapes without ever having produced his own bottles, planting different varieties in the early 1990s such as Nebbiolo, Barbera, Syrah and Chardonnay. With a lot of passion and drive, the two brothers began selecting the finest plants to produce their own wines finally with their own label, enhancing each grape variety and terroir, producing just over a thousand bottles per wine type. In the winery the style is quite traditional, vinification in steel tanks and aging in medium and small used barrels. For now the total production is about 10000 bottles divided into Barbera d’Asti, Langhe Nebbiolo, Barbaresco, Syrah, Chardonnay and Timorasso. The result of each wine is extraordinary, where each label is superbly represented by enhancing the structure, cleanliness and character of each grape variety.
