The Vacca family has been living and working the vines at Cantina del Pino, one of the oldest estates in Barbaresco, since the 1920s when Giuseppe Vacca, bought the property from his friend, the legendary agronomist and director of the Royal Enological School in Alba, Domizio Cavazza. Branching out from the legendary Produttori del Barbaresco Cooperative, Renato Vacca (the great-grandson of Giuseppe Vacca) convinced his father, Adriano, to start their own label in 1997. Under Renato’s stewardship, Cantina del Pino emerged as one of the most important producers in Barbaresco. In 2013 Franca (Renato’s wife) joined the winery. Unfortunately, Renato died in 2020, but Franca, a winemaker in her own right, along with Renato’s parents, continues the traditions and dedication to quality of Cantina del Pino. This 2019 was Renato’s last vintage; it is elegant and fully ripe, with great structure and balance.
