Winery | The Vanotu is the most prestigious of the Pelissero vineyards and produced its first wines in 1960. Replanted in 1964, it lies between 300 and 350 meters above sea level and faces completely south. It is on the border of all three municipalities of the Barbaresco production area, Treiso, Barbaresco, and Neive, and forms part of the enclosure of one of the most beautiful valleys in the region. Located near the top of the hillside, the vineyard is well-ventilated, resulting in very little disease pressure. The favorable microclimate and southern exposure guarantee very regular growing seasons even in years when other parts of Barbaresco do not fare well. The soil, which is particularly rich in limestone, produces elegant wines of great personality. They always clearly reflect the vintage with notes of sage, mint, rose, chamomile, thyme, and a multitude of other aromatic herbs that only certain privileged parts of the Langhe can express. 'Vanotu; is the diminutive in the Piedmontese dialect of Giovanni, Giorgio’s grandfather and previous owner of this vineyard. |
