Barbera d'Asti Sichei DOCG
| Vintage | 2022 |
| Winemaker | Franco Roero |
| Region | Piedmont |

Winemaking
The Barbera d'Asti Sichei is made from very old vines rooted in calcareous and clayey soils in the municipality of Montegrosso d'Asti. This wine is fermented traditionally on the mash for 15 days at a controlled temperature of 27°C and then matured in barriques for 18 months.
Our tasting note
Intense ruby red with violet highlights. Inviting red fruit aromas of wild strawberry and cherry in the nose. Spicy notes of pink pepper and nutmeg accompany this. Plenty of fruit and aromas of coffee, some chocolate and a touch of graphite on the palate. Powerful, lingering after-taste.

Barbera d'Asti Mongovone DOCG
| Vintage | 2023 |
| Winemaker | Elio Perrone |
| Region | Piedmont |
| Grapes | 100% Barbera |
Winemaking
The Barbera d'Asti Mongovone is produced from 80-year old vines in the parish of Isola d'Asti. Following traditional fermentation, the wine matures for 12 months in barriques, followed by a short duration of maturing in bottles.
Our tasting note
The Barbera d'Asti has a deep, dark and intensive colour. Its nose takes one by surprise with hints of spices such as cinnamon and vanilla, as well as plums and blackberry. The Barbera d'Asti is soft, juicy and comes alive on the pallet with a taste similar to blackberry jam, good integrated wood and long-lasting finish.

Barbera d'Asti Tasmorcan DOCG
| Vintage | 2024 |
| Winemaker | Elio Perrone |
| Region | Piedmont |
| Grapes | 100% Barbera |
Winemaking
The grapes originate from the vineyards of the municipality of Isola d'Asti in the Frazione Mongovone. The grapes are gently harvested by hand. After pressing, the grape must ferments in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks before the wine is aged for four months in large wooden barrels and french barriques.
Our tasting note
A wine that highlights the fruity and opulent Barbera notes. On the nose, it delights with clear aromas of cherry, blackcurrant, violet, chocolate and tobacco. On the palate it delivers what the nose promises; flavours of cherry, redcurrant and dark chocolate, soft and juicy. The finish is long-lasting with cherry compote, dark chocolate and a hint of pepper.
