Description
Barbera, more than any other wine, is the wine of the farmer, a humble wine, deeply rooted in the territory, representing the blood of life for the people of Langa. More complex than Dolcetto, with a more robust body and more extracts. Its robustness and acidity make it a lively and direct wine, with the typical character that the land that grows it gives it. Barbera is certainly the most Piedmontese of all wines. The vine can be found in many wine-growing areas of the region: from Alba, to Asti, in the Monferrato area up to the northernmost parts of the region. The result is therefore not surprising: a wide range of Barbera wines.

This is an area of rare majestic beauty, with vine-covered hills and castle-topped communities looking across to each other over steep, plunging valleys.
Here, in our beautiful land dedicated to the production of wine, my family have grown grapes and produced wines for at least six generations.
Today I continue to grow the traditional grapes of Le Langhe, dolcetto, barbera and nebbiolo, to produce a range of classic and prestigious wines that are the purest expression of the land from which they are born, Le Langhe. Read more
