ORGANICALLY FARMED
Oddero's wines display a combination of tradition with a dash of polish, with moderately long extraction times of around 25 days. Aging is in 2000L French oak barrels for around 2.5 years in the single vineyard wines.
VINOUS 95+ POINTS - "The 2019 Barolo Brunate emerges from a tiny half-hectare plot at the highest elevation in the vineyard. It presents a beguiling mix of all the balsamic notes typical of Brunate, along with an extra bit of mid-palate texture that comes from aging in a slightly smaller cask vis-a-vis the other Barolos. Firm tannins need time to soften." - ANTONIO GALLONI
The origins for Cantine e Poderi Oddero go back at least to the 1800s when family members were documented as making wine in the town of La Morra. By 1878, they had their estate bottling, and the by the end of that century, small barrels were being sold to the Americas. The modern winery was shaped by Giacomo Oddero who renovated things in the 1950s, who served officially in guiding Piedmont's agricultural products through the formation of regulations. This is a family who is deeply rooted in the area's agriculture!
Today, Giacomo's daughter, Mariacristina is clearly continuing to make benchmark wines of the Langhe region! The estate's vineyards are spread out, from the Barolo/La Morra slope's Brunate vineyard to Serralunga's "Grand Cru" of Vigna Rionda.
