Barbera shaped by clarity, brightness, and quiet structural depth.

Vibrant

Structured

Juicy

Savoury

A focused and energetic Barbera that balances fruit purity with tension.

Nose: Ripe red cherry, blackberry, and plum, layered with violet, subtle spice, and a touch of earth.
Palate: Medium-bodied with vivid acidity driving notes of dark cherry and crushed raspberry. Fine tannins support the fruit without heaviness, while a gentle mineral thread keeps the wine taut and composed.
Finish: Persistent and clean, with a savoury edge and fresh red fruit lingering.
Serve: Cool room temperature, a little under the table's. Warmer and the alcohol shows; cooler and the fruit stays defined.

Depth and freshness together, with wood kept in the background.

Barbera from La Morra, around the Arborina hill: dark fruit and a lively acid line.

Vines: 100% Barbera, a long-standing presence in the family's vineyards.
Soils: Predominantly calcareous clay, contributing structure and balance.
Farming: Sustainable vineyard practices with manual harvest and careful selection.
Cellar: Spontaneous fermentation, then steel with a short passage in wood for balance.
Additions: Minimal sulphur.
