Luigi Giordano - Barbaresco Montestefano 2014 (1.5L)

Luigi Giordano Description

A stone’s throw from the village center of Barbaresco, the winery was established by Giovanni Giordano in the 1930s during a time of profound crisis in the Italian wine world. After a period of growing and selling grapes, Giovanni’s son, Luigi, made the bold decision to vinify his own fruit, bottling the first wine under his own label in 1958. For an independent grower like Luigi to bottle his own wine at a time when plans to establish an official appellation in Barbaresco were only in their infancy was nearly unthinkable. Today’s winery remains a spirited family effort, driven by the shared vision of Luigi himself, his daughter Laura, and his grandson Matteo. Together, they produce timeless wines from vineyards planted in some of Barbaresco’s most prestigious crus, including Asili and Montestefano. Another Barbaresco bottling from the cru of Cavanna showcases the winery’s elegant, hands-off style of winemaking and represents the only single-vineyard bottling of its kind.

Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points

New leather, eucalyptus,rose and star anise aromas waft out of the glass on this fragrant red along with a whiff of game. The polished palate evokes cherry compote, star anise and a hint of orange zest alongside taut, polished tannins and bright acidity. It's more approachable and elegant than usual at this young stage for the Montestefano vineyard thanks to the cool, wet vintage, but it's still a great offering. Drink through 2024. — K.O.
