Harvested from the Vanotu vineyard slope in Neive, the 2015 Pelissero Barbaresco delivers the pronounced aromatic intensity and structured backbone characteristic of late-harvested Piedmont Nebbiolo. This 750ml bottle captures a vintage defined by sustained warmth, producing a wine that maintains vibrant acidity alongside polished, grippy tannins.


Tasting Profile

The bouquet layers wild rose petal, sun‑dried cherry, and sweet tobacco with deeper accents of licorice root, cured leather, and crushed limestone. On the palate, fine‑grained tannins support a medium‑weight frame, revealing flavors of pomegranate, dried herbs, and toasted spice before settling into a lingering mineral finish.


Suggested Food Pairings

  • Taglierini al tartufo or agnolotti del plin
  • Braised short ribs with white peppercorn and juniper
  • Aging Cascavelle or aged toma cheeses
  • Roasted wild mushrooms and truffled potato dishes

Pour at 62–65°F to allow the volatile thiol aromatics to fully express. A thirty‑minute decant prior to service will soften early tannins and integrate the subtle oak influence. For best clarity, store upright once opened and consume within two days.

93+ Points
"The 2015 Barbaresco Vanotu is the most potent of these 2015 Barbarescos from Pelissero. Here the flavors are dark and boldly sketched. Black cherry, plum, licorice, new leather and copious French oak are enshrouded by massive tannins. Today, the Vanotu comes across as a bit monolithic, but it also has tremendous depth and sheer concentration. Needless to say, it will be interesting to see how the 2015 develops in the coming years"
