barbaresco
Pajorè
Although not fully exploited (the largest spread of vines, owned by Angelo Gaja, is not used for a single vineyard Barbaresco), this MGA enjoys considerable esteem thanks to the cult wines of Enrico Giovannini Moresco, who first produced a Barbaresco Podere Pajorè in 1967. Soils, altitudes and exposures are in most cases optimal for Nebbiolo, which in this cru expresses an elegant structure, well defined tannins, and a classic character, never over the top.
Menzioni Vigna: Lunetta.
