Il Principe

Pairs beautifully with pasta ragu, turkey dishes, light red meats, grilled poultry, risotto, and medium-aged cheeses.

Sourced from vineyards in Barbaresco and Roero (Vezza d’Alba), planted on bluish-grey calcareous-clay marl (Barbaresco) and loose sandy soils (Roero). 2022 was a warm, dry vintage with scarce rainfall, resulting in early harvest and concentrated fruit.

Rested for a minimum of 12 months in a combination of large vats, wood and bottle.

Fermentation followed traditional red wine methods. Post-fermentation, the wine refines for 12 months in large vats before being bottled.

Time at Baccō is a slow rhythm, gently flowing like the seasons. Just as the life cycle of the vine cannot be rushed, creating any rare work of art requires patience. We believe that true wellbeing lies in synergy with nature, nurturing our environment and savouring its gifts. Our wines are made with this mindful, unhurried approach, to be generous and engage all the senses. Baccō is a family inspired project borne from Nathan Jankelowitz’s passion for the art of producing premium quality wines. Long inspired by the opulence of the Super Tuscan region, Nathan dreamt of bringing this holistic, experiential brand of luxury to South African wine lovers. A dream that has now become a magnificent reality.
