Description: | Piedmont icon Bruno Giacosa once remarked "I would recognize wine from the Santo Stefano vineyard in the midst of tens of other Barbaresco wines." For four decades, Giacosa acted as Santo Stefano's guardian, alchemizing its grapes into $300+ vineyard-designate Barbarescos. But about a decade ago, the Stupino family—owners of Santo Stefano and the Castello di Neive winery—reclaimed the grapes for themselves. Since then, they've been on one of the hottest streaks in Italy. \n\r\nIn the spectacular 2016 vintage, they produced one of the top-rated Cellar Selection Riservas of the last decade, from Santo Stefano. Wine Enthusiast critic Kerin O'Keefe—the Italian-wine expert who literally wrote the defining book on Barolo and Barbaresco—awarded it 96 points and Cellar Selection honors. Only 600 cases were made, only 100 were imported. |
