Moccagatta is one of the most consistent estates in Barbaresco. Year in and year out, the Minuto family makes juicy, opulent Barbarescos that can be enjoyed with minimal cellaring. Very little has changed here in recent years. The Minutos prefer short ferments and aging in French oak, both of which exalt fruit and result in the supple character that has defined these wines for several decades.

The Minuto family excels with forward, racy wines that can be enjoyed pretty much upon release. The Barbarescos see one week on the skins, in rotary fermenters. Malolactic fermentations are done in steel. The wines are then racked in French oak barrique where they spend 18 months (12 for the straight Barbaresco) prior to bottling.
