From Barbaresco's prized Santo Stefano vineyard—entirely owned by Castello di Neive—this 2008 Nebbiolo has matured into ethereal complexity. Seventeen years after the vintage, it glides with dried cherries, crushed flowers, and spice notes that reveal Nebbiolo's graceful evolution. Medium-bodied with refined structure, this wine shows how Piedmont's greatest expression gains nuance and perfume over time rather than fruit power. The Stupino family's dedication to this iconic single-vineyard Barbaresco continues to reward.
