Vinification

The grapes are selected from vineyards in Agliano Terme, one of which is also used for our single vineyard La Crena, and several other villages in the hills around Asti. Average density is 4500 plants per hectare. The process starts with a cold maceration in stainless steels, then the must is fermented for approximately 2 weeks, with daily pumping overs. After this, the wine macerates for another week, then it is racked and it is moved to oak for malolactic.

The Wine Front, 14 April, 2019
Quite subdued bouquet, green herb, cranberry, mixed red berry and something malty. Sloshy in the palate, fun loving texture with gently sour-sweet fruit profile, tart acidity and a pucker of gently building tannin. Flavours are a little dilute, washy, but the general feel is of a wine of high drinkability with understated personality.

The Real Review, 27 March, 2019
Youthful, deep red/purple colour with a clean, attractive black cherry aroma, a touch of coffee bean, the tannins supple and savoury, powdery and fine, while the palate is well-balanced and deep, with medium-body and fine harmony. The tannins are neatly honed and balanced. Moderate length. A smart, stylish barbera.
