THE PRODUCER
Founded by current owner Aldo Pola’s father, Franco, in 1969, the Fontanabianca
estate has always had strong links with the Neive village of Barbaresco. The
family owns two single vineyards in Neive – Cru Bordini and Serraboella – in
which Nebbiolo thrives and produces fragrant and elegant examples of the region
and variety year after year.
THE WINE
Sourced from vineyards in the village of Neive and vines with prime southern and
western exposure, Fontanabianca’s generic Barbaresco is fermented in stainless
steel tanks before being matured in large oak barrels for 10-12 months. The
finished wine is elegant, juicy and harmonious, and provides a delicious
entry-point to a stunning area’s wines.

CRITICS SCORES
We choose our wines based on a range of criteria(seehow we choose our wines)of
which critic scores is justone. Rather than simply highlight the best score to
promote a wine, our average critic score is calculated from the scores provided
by several respected wine critics, who we follow for specific regions. They do
not represent all critic scores and, wherever possible, we try and give more
weight to more recent reviews. Where appropriate we consider market-based scores
like Global Wine Score or Wine Searcher Average scores.
As a rule, we look to offer wines that achieve a92/100average critic score or
better and frankly a lot of very good wines simply don’t make the cut. As a
high-end provider we want to reflect that positioning in the quality of wines we
offer. Such wines are only a tiny fraction of those generally on offer in the
market. We believe that an average score is a more conservative and
representative approach, but it is still subjective and only offered as a guide
to our customers, who will (and should) do their own research. We will add
individual critic scores to our website in the future.
