Cascina Penna Currado, Langhe Nebbiolo Bricco Lago, 2023
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Cascina Penna Currado is the project of Luigi Currado (of Vietti fame) and Maria Penna, blending tradition with a modern sensibility. Their “Bricco Lago” bottling comes from a hillside site in the Langhe, where younger vines and careful farming yield a more accessible expression of Nebbiolo—without sacrificing authenticity.
The 2023 vintage is all about finesse. Rose petal, red cherry, and orange peel leap from the glass, while the palate is bright, sleek, and laced with fine, dusty tannins. There’s no oak intrusion, just varietal clarity and a mineral edge that keeps it grounded. It’s not a baby Barolo—it’s Nebbiolo with its own voice: vibrant, structured, and joyfully expressive.
Perfect with mushroom dishes, roast poultry, or simply a decant and a quiet evening. For fans of traditional Nebbiolo who want something approachable now but with real substance, Bricco Lago 2023 is a beautiful, poised addition to the Langhe landscape.
