Nadia Curto Wines: Authentic Barolo Between Tradition and Modern Vision
The Nadia Curto collection tells the story of a Barolo crafted with sensitivity, precision, and a deep knowledge of the Annunziata of La Morra. Here, in the heart of the Langhe, the Curto family has cultivated four hectares of vineyard on the Arborina hill for decades, giving rise to an interpreter capable of uniting peasant roots, attention in the vineyard, and a personal interpretation of nebbiolo.
The result is a wine that clearly expresses its territory of origin: elegance, aromatic finesse, structure, and a tannic texture that invites aging. The selection is designed for those seeking a Barolo that can tell the story of the hill, the artisanal work, and the identity of a producer who has managed to find a balance between traditional approaches and modern sensibilities.
The Stylistic Profile of the Winery
The story of Nadia Curto begins with the work of Marco Curto and his wife Adele, later continued by their daughter Nadia, who chose to carry on the family legacy in a personal direction. A fundamental reference has been Uncle Elio Altare, a symbolic figure of the Barolo Boys, from whom Nadia learned a more contemporary approach to wine. This dual influence is reflected in a balanced vision, where respect for the vineyard coexists with careful and measured winery choices.
In the vineyard, an organic agricultural approach is favored, using pheromone traps instead of pesticides and natural fertilization. In the winery, the work on macerations and aging allows for the enhancement of the character of the Arborina nebbiolo, maintaining tension, depth, and aromatic definition. It is an approach that appeals to both enthusiasts of classic Barolo and those seeking territorial wines with a more dynamic and contemporary imprint.
