Collection: Incredible value Barbaresco from Castello di Neive

Est. delivery in April, 2025

Here's a treat for you... we have just been offered the latest 2021 release of Barbaresco Santo Stefano from the iconic Castello di Neive (a Harrow family favourite as can be seen from the photo!), and it's shaping up to be one of the finest vintages yet since the estate took production into its own hands. For my money this is the best value Barbaresco you can get in 2021, with top scores across the board, including 97 points from Kerin O'Keefe and a Decanter Platinum award!

The estate is one of the most historical in Piedmont and yet flies slightly under the radar. Dominating the picturesque village of Neive, it was in the castle’s cellars that Frenchman Louis Oudart was responsible for the evolution of Nebbiolo in the 1800s from a sweet white wine to a statuesque red. Castello di Neive is also the longstanding owner of Barbaresco’s most prestigious cru vineyards – Santo Stefano, made famous by Bruno Giacosa, who purchased their grapes. The wines are made in a traditional style and very long-lived but offer one of the purest and most thrilling expressions of Nebbiolo when mature.
