Tintero was founded in 1900 and produces about 50k cases a year. 45 of their 75 acres are planted to Moscato. $19.99 retail. Only made in exceptional vintages. Always snapped up before it hits inventory lists in this market. Sourced from 2 parcels that make up less than 2.5 acres in Neive, one planted in 1980 the other in 1990. 24 months in 10-20 year old 500L puncheons, bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Sort of a “village” barbaresco, no cellaring required.

Kermit Lunch is importing a wonderful silky and fairly complex Barbaresco for $19.99 at Andronicos. It's a 2009 so this has had time to collect itself. I'm gonna buy a lot at this price.

So glad I discovered Nebbiolo. And this one is a great value - a Barbaresco for $21. Nicely balanced.
