Barolo Bricco San Pietro, Anna Maria Abbona, 2016

Coming from the single vineyard of Bricco San Pietro in Monforte d'Alba, this superb 2016 wine is only the 3rd vintage to be made. But what a wine! The vineyard itself covers quite a large area yet Anna Maria only has a small proportion of the overall surface. The nose is slightly backward for now (October 2021) with aromas of red fruits, floral notes and hints of liquorice. This will develop i tome to open to a fine and elegant nose as we witnessed before bottling. On the palate, it is dominated with bright red fruit flavours, great purity and fine and elegant tannins that will support the wine for some 5 to 10 years of life. The finish has a balsamic note to it and it is very well balanced and long.

OUR GROWERS

Anna Maria Abbona

Anna Maria Abbona is a remarkable estate located in the picturesque hills near Dogliani. Anna Maria herself is a delightful lady whose charm and passion is very much reflected in her wines. The estate carries a rich history that stretches back to 1936, when her grandfather, Angelo, planted the first vineyard known as Maioli. Anna Maria and her husband took over the estate in 1989. While their hearts lie with the Dolcetto grape that earned the region DOCG status, their portfolio showcases other eminent Langhe grape varieties. At the core of the family’s winemaking philosophy is the connection between indigenous grape varieties and their terroir—a bond that infuses their wines with distinct personality and identity. Their portfolio encompasses a range of exceptional wines, each crafted exclusively from 100% single-varietal grapes. White limestone soils and vineyard altitudes above 500 meters impart freshness and drinkability to their wines.
