Elio Perrone
The Perrone family has been producing wine on the stunning hills of Castiglione Tinella since the end of the 19th century. Stefano Perrone, member of the fourth generation, took over the 8.5 hectare estate from his father Elio in 1989. His vision: To produce wines that are an expression of their individual vineyards with tireless passion and commitment. Today, the products of the winery range from expressive Moscato d'Asti to top quality Barbera. These are oenological gems born of knowledge that dates back over a century, combined with the dynamic and innovative spirit of Stefano and his late wife Giuliana.

Barbera d'Asti Tasmorcan DOCG
| Vintage | 2022 |
| 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.

Barbera d'Asti Mongovone DOCG
| Vintage | 2022 |
| 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.

Moscato d'Asti naturale DOCG
| Vintage | 2023 |
| Winemaker | Elio Perrone |
| Region | Piedmont |
| Grapes | 100% Moscato |
Winemaking
Following the harvest, the ripe grapes are gently pressed and the grape must is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. As soon as the wine has an alcohol content of 5 percent alcohol per unit volume, the pressure tank is closed and the temperature is reduced. In order that the correct amount of residual sugar remains, the naturally fermentation is interrupted.
Our tasting note
A vibrant and light straw yellow. The aroma invokes images of acacia and orange blossoms. A wonderful harmony between sweet and freshness on the pallet. Long-lasting fruity finish.
