Alfredo Prunotto founded his business in 1922 and was one of Piedmont’s most dynamic exporters until his retirement in 1956. The company then passed to Prunotto’s friend Beppe Colla, now a revered winemaker and one of the founding fathers of modern Piedmont. This exceptional single-vineyard Barbaresco is fine and complex on the nose, with hints of liquorice, forest fruits, violets, cinnamon and cloves. On the palate, it showcases a harmonious balance between fruit, acidity, and tannins.

This wine sources its fruit exclusively from a five-hectare site with local Tortoniano soils that are rich in magnesium and manganese with a bluish hue. The Prunotto 2021 Barbaresco Bric Turot (with 26,000 bottles made) shows an expressive savory side that to my tastes translates as more roots than flowers. Dark fruit is followed by tilled earth, petrichor and toasted almond husk. This is a keeper, but for near and medium-term drinking, I would go with the village Barbaresco. - Monica Larner

The 2021 Barbaresco Bric Turot offers all the classicism of Treiso in its deeply-pitched, spiced personality and structural feel. Dark red-toned fruit, cloves, leather, orange peel and saddle leather give the 2021 lovely exotic elements that add to its beguiling personality. Clean mineral notes extend the finish.
