Moccagatta, a family estate in Barbaresco, produces Bric Balin from a single south-facing cru near the winery. The site’s calcareous clay soils yield concentrated, structured Nebbiolo.

The 2020 was fermented in stainless steel and aged in French oak barriques for refinement. It is the flagship wine of Moccagatta, showcasing power and elegance in equal measure.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"The 2020 Barbaresco Bric Balin is powerful and deep, as all these wines are, but also offers a measure of balance. Red cherry, red plum, espresso, menthol, licorice and mocha lend nuance to this decidedly potent, explosive Barbaresco. Bright floral top notes on the finish help soften the impact of the formidable tannins." -Antonio Galloni

"Barbaresco. Impressively dark ruby. Concentrated dark fruit with minty oak on the nose. Smooth cherry fruit with touches of vanilla from the oak and long, powdery tannins. Quite a bit of acidity, too, adding freshness."
