Piemonte is considered by many the top wine region of Italy, being the land of Barolo and Barbaresco, even though these mega-popular wines only account for 3% of the region’s wine production.
Score: 89Vintage 2022Vinous MediaThe 2022 Brachetto d’Acqui Pineto lifts from the glass with a seductive bouquet of sweet roses, cloves, cinnamon tea and black cherries. This presents a lovely inner sweetness balanced by juicy acidity. Crisp wild berry fruits cascade under an air of violet inner florals. The Pineto cleans up beautifully through the finish, with medium length and a wild strawberry staining.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 85Vintage 2022Wine EnthusiastWild fresh raspberries burst out of the glass, with subtle hints of fresh thyme and violets. Crunchy red berries on the palate give a pop; there's a soft fizziness on the finish. Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 87Vintage 2020Wine AdvocateBrachetto d'Acqui is a bit retro and old fashioned as far as wine styles go. However, this deeply loved sweet sparkling red wine taps right into some of the most heartfelt traditions and cultures of Piedmont. The Marenco 2020 Brachetto d'Acqui Pineto opens to a very light ruby color, with simple aromas of wild raspberry, cassis and bitter almond. The acidity and fresh beading would make a great partner to a raspberry and cream custard tart.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
