This classic Barbaresco is a blend of our finest vineyards, a small part of Asili, the part with younger vineyards, and the lowest part of Bernadot in Treiso. With the union of these two different expressions, the wine achieves a better balance than vinifying the two wines as separate parcels. While on the one side there is the explosive finesse of Asili and on the other, the fullness of the Treiso cru, in the glass we find the right balance; the result is a delicious and traditional wine, a perfect example of an area that moves between structure and elegance.

Sweet strawberries and cherries with some flower and sandalwood character. Medium-bodied with beautifully integrated tannins that run through the center palate. Fresh and vivid on the finish. From organically grown grapes. Needs a year or two to come together, but very pretty. Try after 2022

A bright, cherry-flavored red, with accents of iron, tobacco and tar, this Barbaresco is vibrant and shows excellent tension. Balanced and juicy, with a chalky feel on the long finish. Best from 2024 through 2038. 150 cases imported
