Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Camp du Rouss is deep red in color with garnet highlights. If offers textbook Barbera aromas of crushed cherry and wild berry jam, followed by notes of leather and herbs, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, Camp du Rouss is bright, with luscious, soft tannins. The supple layers of fruit are backed by Barbera's trademark acidity making it the ideal food wine. Recommended with meat in rich wine sauces, roastbeef, cured meats and medium aged cheese.

Professional Ratings

91 Wine & Spirits
Scents of plums and cherries mix with heady new oak perfume in this cleand and supple barbera. The new oak adds a little dazzle while earthiness places it directly in Piedmont, with black-rooted truffle spice. Meanwhile, the fruit itself is bright and beautiful, carrying a linden-like itch that makes you want to drink more. Delicious with pasta in a meaty boar ragu.
90 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2006 Barbera d'Asti Camp Du Rouss is a more important selection made from lower yields and aged in French oak. It is another gorgeous effort from Coppo. The wine reveals notable elegance in a ripe expression of fruit supported by the minerality that is the hallmark of Barbera from Asti. There is a lovely weight and purity to this wine that make it impossible to resist. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2014.

Piero Coppo founded the winery in 1892 in the town of Canelli, in Piedmont, establishing himself as a top producer of Moscato. Piero was succeeded by his son Luigi, who expanded the company to include other classic still and sparkling wines from Piedmont, made with the native varietals of the area. Luigi also provided his winery with the facilities and equipments needed to compete in the difficult, but growing, post-war market. Today, Piero's four grandsons manage the company, successfully integrating new styles with traditional viticulture.

Just after the loss of their father Luigi in 1984, the brothers decided to focus on Barbera, releasing their own interpretation of this local grape. The prestigious Pomorosso was born, emerging as the model of the "Modern Style" Barbera, aged in oak and with unmistakable personality. Barbera, a truly native varietal, soon became the pride of the entire region.

The four brothers Piero, Gianni, Paolo and Roberto have set an ambitious goal: to resurrect the traditional red varietals from the Asti region, and to produce serious white wines with aging potential. This is a new generation of winegrowers with a new way of viewing agriculture. Although they are considered to be "Barbera specialists", they also produce an outstanding Moscato d'Asti and an excellent Gavi.
