Produttori del Barbaresco is all about site-specific Nebbiolo, and Muncagota (formerly Moccagatta) is one of their most structured, age-worthy crus. Sitting on a steep southeast-facing slope, it produces powerful, tannic Barbaresco with serious depth. The 2019 vintage brings great balance, combining fresh acidity with layered complexity.

Red cherry, raspberry, and blood orange lead, backed by dried rose petals, anise, and crushed stone. The tannins are firm and grippy, but there’s plenty of brightness to keep it lifted. This one is built for the cellar—give it a long decant now, or let it evolve over the next 15–20 years. A perfect match for braised meats, aged cheeses, or a slow Sunday afternoon with a decanter and good company.

The Produttori is Barbaresco’s benchmark producer. A huge share of the village’s best farmers, representing virtually all of its best terroirs, bring their fruit to the co-op. It is hard to be admitted to the co-op. There is a waiting list; only a few make it. Once you are in, the rules are strict. You don’t get to hold back any wine for your own labels. This isn’t a region where growers ship off their second best to the co-op and put their pride and joy in their own luxury bottles. You have to meet strict quality controls, of course. The Produttori is only devoted to quality-minded farmers with incredible terroir giving their all. The winemaking is likewise next level. Aldo Vacca, the co-op’s general manager, is one of the wine world’s greatest artists. If you ever have the opportunity to meet and taste with him, take it; he is also one of the wine world’s great communicators.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota is shaping up to be gorgeous. The 2019 is marked by a very evident brightness that is not always present. Medium in body and gracious, with terrific balance, the Muncagota is very impressive in this early tasting of the 2019 Riservas. It could turn out to be one of the surprises in this range. Keep an eye on this." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

RP 95
"Showing depth and a profound character, the Produttori del Barbaresco 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota pulls back initially and is a little shy in terms of its first wave of aromas. Give it a few minutes and the wine opens to delicate tones of tart cherry, blackcurrant and soft earth. It offers lasting freshness over a silky, medium-plus mouthfeel." -Monica Larner

Wine Enthusiast

"The nose opens with aromas of dried cranberries and red currant all mixed in a bowl with anise, clove and freshly cut herbs. Firm and structured with a lifted freshness that cuts across the palate. The palate transcribes the aromas perfectly with the addition of a touch of crushed stone that adds another layer to this wine that needs a spell in the cellar."

Kerin O'Keefe

WE 96
"Rose, menthol, forest floor and leather aromas come to the forefront along with the barest whiff of asphalt. Full-bodied and structured, the palate delivers raspberry, blood orange, licorice and a minty note alongside firm, fine-grained tannins."
