Description

Inspires you to sell everything & buy a vineyard, just like Loredana and Nicola did.

Bricco San Pietro refers to a specific vineyard or geographical location, often situated on a hill or elevated area (as "Bricco" translates to "hilltop" in Piedmontese dialect). This area likely has unique soil, microclimate, and exposure conditions that contribute distinct characteristics to the wine.

The 2019 vintage of Barolo is widely regarded as a classic expression of Nebbiolo, benefiting from near-perfect growing conditions. The growing season was marked by a cool spring with adequate rainfall, which supported even bud break and vine development. A warm, dry summer followed, allowing the grapes to ripen gradually, developing intense aromatics and balanced acidity.

For Bricco San Pietro 2019, these conditions translated into a wine of exceptional elegance and complexity. The vintage showcases precise fruit character, with vibrant red and dark berry notes complemented by floral and earthy nuances. The well-structured tannins and slightly higher acidity ensure excellent aging potential, making this a standout year for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Loredana Addari and Nicola Argamante decided they'd enough of their jobs in the city, so they packed it all in, studied winemaking and bought a tiny vineyard in Monforte d'Alba. They upgraded the traditional estate into an eco-friendly haven by adopting lighter bottles, handpicking, solar panels and natural waste water purification, and by massively reducing the use of chemical treatments and sulphur.
