Musso Valter - Barbaresco / Barbera (Italy)
With Musso, we welcome the absolute top of Barbaresco to our portfolio. The historic vineyards are also connected to those of their world-famous neighbour Gaja. In 2014, their Barbaresco "Pora" was even voted the best Barbaresco of the year ... scored better than Gaja's! The domain was established in 1929, the year of the great depression in Italy. We could certainly not call it an easy start! But that could not prevent slow but steady work towards the absolute top of the region. At first it started only with 2 tiny vineyards in Cavanna and Ronchi, to which later some of the roaring names of Barbaresco were added. Today, father Valter and son Emanuele Musso run the winery. Despite the enormous status they do with an admirable modesty that at least matches their equally impressive drive. The vineyards of Musso are currently located in 4 of the largest locations in Barbaresco: Pora, Rio Sordo, Ronchi and Cavanna. Every wine and grape is treated with the utmost care and is always an unforgettable experience for every wine passionate. With great pride and respect we would like to introduce and recommend this iconic wine domain to our wine-loving customers.

2021 Musso Valter Langhe Pinot Nero Doc

Light cherry red color with dark garnet red glittering. Fruity and floral tones predominate in the nose and immediately add a delicious fraiche to the wine. Its fresh character is in perfect balance with the airy fruity style and its silky accompanying tannin. The taste, however, remains important enough to give it a certain depth and complexity. Remarkably long and refined finale.
