Oddero Barbaresco Gallina 2023

Oddero Barbaresco Gallina 2023 is a refined expression of Nebbiolo from one of Piedmont’s most respected names. From the prized Gallina cru, it offers the elegance, structure, and layered complexity that have made Barbaresco one of Italy’s most celebrated fine wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the classic translucent ruby color associated with Nebbiolo, hinting at its elegance rather than power. The nose opens with ripe red cherry and raspberry, followed by dried rose petals, violets, sweet spices, and a subtle earthy nuance. On the palate, it is finely textured and beautifully balanced, with lively acidity, firm but polished tannins, and a long, persistent finish. The wine combines finesse with depth, and while already expressive, it should continue to evolve gracefully over the coming years, gaining complexity and softness with bottle age.

Production
Gallina is one of Barbaresco’s most renowned vineyard sites, known for its favorable exposure and soils that help Nebbiolo develop fragrance, precision, and structure. The grapes are typically harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, with vinification designed to preserve purity of fruit and the grape’s natural complexity. Oddero’s approach emphasizes careful extraction and aging to bring out the cru’s distinctive character.

Food & Serving
This Barbaresco pairs beautifully with truffle dishes, roast veal, braised beef, wild mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses. Serve it at around 16-18°C, and consider decanting for about 1-2 hours if drinking young, to help the aromatics open and the tannins soften.

Producer
Oddero is a historic Piedmont producer with deep roots in the Langhe, long recognized for crafting wines that reflect the authenticity of their vineyard sites. The estate is known for its traditional yet precise style, particularly in Barolo and Barbaresco, and has earned respect for consistently producing elegant, terroir-driven wines of notable aging potential.
