Good To Know: Giuseppe Cortese winery is taken well care of by a family that has been protecting and enhancing the Barbaresco region since 1971. The winegrowing is a long tradition carried on by the children: Pier Carlo and Tizinia and son-in-law Gabrielle.

The winery has been developing a vineyard with an area of 8 hectares and has been expanding their production range. .

Giuseppe Cortese Barbera d’Alba Morassina 2020 is a bold and expressive red wine crafted entirely from estate-grown grapes in the Trifolera zone near Barbaresco. Aged for 18 months in a mix of French barriques—about 30% new—and large Slavonian oak casks, followed by six months in bottle, this Barbera combines richness with elegance. It opens with deep ruby-purple hues and aromas of ripe red berries, sweet spices, and subtle hints of tobacco and vanilla from its time in wood. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet balanced, with vibrant acidity and a polished texture that leads to a smooth, persistent finish. With an alcohol level around 14–14.5%, the wine is structured but approachable, making it ideal for pairing with hearty dishes such as agnolotti al ragù, grilled meats, or aged cheeses. The 2020 vintage is drinking beautifully now and promises continued enjoyment over the next few years.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great wine bar. They offer a wide selection of wine & the tapas are delicious. I didn't think I'd enjoy bread with olive oil as much as I did! Gambas, patè & croquettes were also delicious. We went at around 2pm and it was quiet - we just wanted something light and available. I believe they offer a variety of meats that has to be pre ordered? We would love to come back. Also, very good service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Txanton offers a focused and authentic take on Spanish dining, grounded in its role as a jamonería and its clear respect for quality produce and tradition. At the heart of the menu is the jamón. The jamón tasting menu is particularly impressive, presenting six different varieties that span the full spectrum of cured ham, each one expertly prepared and deeply flavourful. The supporting dishes are equally strong, including excellent gambas al ajillo (garlic shrimps), a rich and comforting arroz cremoso con frutos de mar (seafood creamy rice), and bold chorizo picante a la brasa (spicy chorizo) with smoky depth. Dessert is distinctive and well judged, with the crema de queso (cream cheese) paired beautifully with PX wine, raisins, and a Tempranillo cookie. Service is relaxed and courteous, with staff providing thoughtful recommendations and attentive care throughout. The setting is welcoming and unpretentious, echoing the atmosphere of a traditional Spanish dining room - ideal for sharing plates, conversation, and good wine. Txanton succeeds in delivering a genuine Spanish experience, excelling in its jamón while offering a consistently well-executed menu.
