About the wine
A triumphant Italian classic, perfect with your holiday meal

- This elegant, beautifully crafted Barbaresco is made from the same grapes as its ultra-expensive big sister Barolo, without the huge price tag.
- With a smooth and silky finish, you've got a wine fit for the finest table. A real labor of love. Crack this beauty open, let it breathe for a few, and enjoy with a sumptuous, saucy plate of homemade ravioli.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Gianfranco & Serena Cordero
Years Angel-funded: 2014-18
- This father and daughter combo are mega-qualified Italian winemakers and consultants who make beautiful Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera and Arneis wines from Piedmont.
- They started producing their own wine in 2006 when they decided to take on Serena's grandfather Teresio's vineyard so they could keep on working in his memory, and let their land be known all over the world.
- Gianfranco is one of the reasons Barolo is known as the King of Wines, and - with the help of Angel funding - Serena is ushering in a new generation of northern Italian wines with balance, elegance and flavor.
