From this winery
  • Start up year: 1921
  • Oenologist: Giulio Grasso
  • Bottles produced: 140.000
  • Hectares: 28
This historic company in Treiso sees the owner Giulio Grasso at the head of all the processing phases, both in the vineyard and in the cellar, with his wife Luciana and three daughters, Paola, Valentina and Federica.

The natural heritage of 31 hectares of vineyards is concentrated mainly on the most suitable places for the production of Barbaresco: Marcarini, Pora, Asili, Vallegrande.

A biological management and non-invasive winemaking techniques, which also exclude the filtration of wines and contemplate the use of large barrels, allow a clear reading of the vintages and terroirs.

Soil composition Gray calcareous - sandy marls.
Harvest By hand around the beginning of October.
Wine making The crushing of the grapes, hand-picked and selected in some micro-areas of CRU Vallegrande, produces the must that ferments, with temperature-controlled maceration, in wooden vats. In the lively phase of fermentation, two punching-downs per day allow the proper extraction of colors and aromas from the skins. Then, submerged cap maceration continues for a long time, about 60 days.
Aging After racking, the wine matures for 30 months in second- and third-passage Slavonian oak barrels and, finally, bottle aging is extended for 12 months before release.
