 Conventional Production Method . The grapes used are 100% Barbera , sourced from vineyards located in the “Bricco delle Olive” cru in the Serralunga d'Alba area. The harvest is carried out manually, with careful selection of the bunches in crates. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks with maceration on the skins for an extended period. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for approximately 15 months in wooden barrels according to the company notes. Aging in wood imparts structure and complexity, while maintaining freshness and varietal expression.

 Pairs well with dishes such as stewed game, light braised meats, roasts, red meat-based sauces, mature and medium-mature cheeses. Excellent with grilled meats.
