Barbaresco KAV 1901 1976
Barbaresco KAV 1901 fra årgang 1976 er en rødvin produceret af KAV 1901 S.P.A. Vinen er klassificeret som Denominazione di origine controllata og har en alkoholprocent på 12,5 %. Et særligt træk ved denne aftapning er volumenangivelsen, hvor etiketten angiver 0,720 liter, mens selve flasken har en prægning i glasset på 75 cl.
Vinen stammer fra Piemonte i det nordvestlige Italien, en region omkranset af Alperne, der betragtes som en af verdens mest prestigefyldte vinregioner. Området er kendt for små, familiedrevne vingårde og et stort fokus på terroir. Landskabet er præget af dramatiske, stejle bakker i underområdet Langhe, som ofte svøbes i tyk morgentåge om efteråret for at beskytte druerne og give en lang modning. Netop årgang 1976 opnåede en score på 85 point og var karakteriseret som et varmt år med moden frugt.
Produktionen foregår i Barbaresco, der ligger i Langhe øst for Alba. Dette er et klassisk område, hvor vinene især kommer fra kommunerne Barbaresco, Neive, Treiso og San Rocco Seno d’Elvio. Barbaresco-vine fungerer ofte som en mere elegant og tidligere tilgængelig pendant til Barolo, og de er kendt for at have et godt lagringspotentiale.
Vinen er fremstillet på Nebbiolo, som er en italiensk topdrue. Denne drue er dybt forankret i Piemonte og er den bærende kraft i vinene fra både Barolo og Barbaresco, hvor den danner grundlag for elegante vine med stor struktur.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Piedmont
Piedmont (which literally means "at the foot of the mountain") is located in northwestern Italy, surrounded by the Alps. It is considered one of the world's absolute most prestigious wine regions. The area is known for small, passionate, family-run wineries and a huge focus on terroir (how the soil and microclimate affect the wine).
Classic characteristics of Piedmont:
The royal wines: This is where the world-famous, complex and expensive red wines Barolo and Barbaresco come from (both made from 100% Nebbiolo).
Everyday heroes: In addition to Nebbiolo, the region is famous for the grapes Barbera (juicy, acidic and incredibly popular) and Dolcetto (dark, soft and fruity).
The white and sweet: Piedmont also makes the crisp white wine Gavi and the famous, lightly sparkling dessert bubbles Moscato d'Asti.
The landscape: Dramatic, steep hills – especially in the Langhe sub-area. The hills are often shrouded in thick morning mist in autumn, which protects the grapes and allows for a long, perfect ripening.
Gastronomy: An absolute mecca for food lovers. The area is world famous for the exclusive white truffles from Alba, hazelnuts and rich, simmered dishes that scream with a glass of local red wine.
When this wine was made, the world looked very different. Here are some of the stories that unfolded as this bottle quietly aged in its cellar.
