Drink it now or cellar for up to 20 years. It is recommended to decant it for half an hour. The Produttori del Barbaresco cooperative was founded in 1958 by Don Fiorino Marengo, then parish priest of Barbaresco, who brought together nineteen farmers. The project was based on the Cantine Sociali di Barbaresco, founded in 1894 by Domizio Cavazza, then dean of the Royal Oenological School of Alba. Thanks to the dedication of the winemakers who make it up, Produttori del Barbaresco has long been considered one of the most prestigious wineries in the area and an example for cooperatives around the world. Today it has 50 members with about 110 hectares of Nebbiolo vineyards and controls most of the historical Crus of the area. The Barbaresco Pora Riserva is produced exclusively with Nebbiolo grapes grown in the vineyard of the same name, on a clayey-limestone soil with veins of sand. It ferments in steel at 30°C, with 28 days of maceration on the skins and malolactic fermentation. It ages 36 months in oak barrels, and 12 months in the bottle. In the glass, the wine is clear, ruby red in color with light garnet reflections. The nose is intense, complex, and fine with notes of plum, tobacco, clove, and balsamic hints. On the palate, it is dry, warm, quite soft, fresh, tannic, and savory. This is a wine with good structure and great longevity. It goes well with game, aged cheeses, grilled meats, and stews.
