Barbera is the wine that best represents the tough, headstrong, quietly dogged, strong but discrete character of the Piedmont winegrower.

this is the favourite of the farm labourer, and has traditionally been the common wine for everyday consumption. This is a very ancient wine, and its name dates back to its origins before the middle Ages. In classical Italian literature, it has been quoted in works by great poets like Giosuè Carducci and Giovanni Pascoli. One of the most popular wines in Piedmont, in recent years Barbera has increased its reputation partly because of improvements in wine-growing techniques, and partly due to the evolution in vinification processes which have made it increasingly more successful.

The Nebbiolo vines that cover the Roero hills are the symbol of the tradition, culture, pride and glory of the Roero winegrowers.

Nebbiolo wine goes back far into history and has been described by Roman authors and in medieval writings. The etymological origins are uncertain: some believe the name comes from the fact that harvesting is very late in the season when the first mists mask the vines, others think it is for the fine grey-blue colour that coats the grapes- recalling the colour of mist.

This is a grape that blooms early and ripens late, permitting the vine to accumulate large amounts of organic substances excellent for the fruit, thus providing a very complete composition which is expressed in the rich opulence and complexity of the wine.

Nebbiolo is the maximum expression of local winegrowing excellence and has always been destined for bottling. On the steep sunny slopes of the Roero hillsides, Nebbiolo grapes absorb those characteristics of refined elegance that make Nebbiolo inimitable and unique, placing it among the aristocracy of the great Italian wines.

To the north-east of Alba, the small section of the Langa which includes the communes of Barbaresco, Treiso, Neive and S. Rocco Seno d’Elvio, is all intensively laid out in vineyards and the hills open out sweetly in immense amphitheatres to fall almost sheerly where the Tanaro divides them from the plain. About 650 hectares of vineyards and little less than three million bottles of Barbaresco DOCG are produced. A wine of great prestige and tradition of Piedmont, made with selected grapes and aged in oak barrels. Because of its full flavour and austere, it’s suitable to be accompanied by important dishes.

Barolo has been defined more times as the king of wines; noble and generous known in Italy and to foreign countries for his austerity, wealth of tastes and of aromas.

Produced southwest of Alba, in a region with rolling hills, which are steeper in some areas, Barolo is a wine with singular and precious characteristics that are determined by the complex geological profile of the area. Today Barolo is one of the most esteemed Italian denominations in the world.

From the selection of the best grapes from our vineyards a bone dry sparkling wine,

with full taste and notes of white flowers and fresh fruit.

Ideal as an aperitif, it matches wonderfully with sea appetizers, pasta or tasteful fish.

The Glera Grapes used for the base wine comes only from our best vineyards in the

most steep hills, with low-profiled soils rich in calcium and with a good amount of

clay and organic matter.

The grapes are hand-harvested in the second decade of September, choosing the

best moment of balance between the sugar content and the acidity of the berries,

which guarantees the freshness of the wine.

After a soft press and a cold settle, the juice is ready to start the first fermentation in

stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 17-19 °C.

After the first fermentation, the wine stays on the fine lees with few rackings and

batonage. In about 5 months, in springtime, the wines from the different vineyards are ready

to be blended to obtain the best cuvées and start the second fermentation in the

autoclaves with the Charmat Method. Once we obtain the bubbles by natural

fermentation the sparkling wine is chilled and rests for about 60-70 days before

being bottled, to obtain an extra fine bubble, for a soft and smooth perlage.

After blending the wine is bottled in the Easter week, and the second fermentation starts slowly in the bottle, in the cold and dark cellar to obtain an extra fine bubble, for a soft and smooth perlage. Fermentation arrests when the residual sugar has all been transformed into CO2 and alcohol. Then the yeast settles in the bottom of the bottle and starts giving evolution to the wine. The wine is never released before the year after bottling, to let time work and enrich its taste

and complexity. We suggest pouring the wine into a carafe to separate the sediment and drinking it clearly, or moving it before pouring the wine and have it cloudy with the yeast in suspension.
