Description
The Barbera d`Alba is the most traditional wine from Piedmont. The grapes come from vineyards with calcareous-clay soil. This ensures the wine an excellent structure and bestowns it with a vigorous but balanced personality. The grapes, picked by hand, are quickly taken to the cellar, destemmed and softly pressed. Its aroma is fresh, with fruity notes that are reminiscent of blackberry, red fruit jam and spicy notes of vanilla and toasted hazelnuts. Its taste is full and pervasive, with a touch of tartness that gives the wine freshness and fragrance. The oaky note is sharp but well blended with the other aromas.

Marchesi di Barolo
[su_expand]Marchesi di Barolo's historical cellars are located in the town of Barolo, in the building overlooking the Castle of the Marquis Falletti. It is here that more than 200 years ago a beautiful story began. The story of a wine cellar where, in the heart of the Langhe area and protected by gentle hills, a wine was born. That wine was then called Barolo, in honour of the town where it was produced for the first time. In 1929 the Abbona family who had their own wine cellars next to the Castle of Marquis Falletti decided to acquire Agenzia Tenuta Opera Pia Barolo. Pietro Abbona, his brother Ernesto and sisters Marina and Celestina took charge of the ancient cellars of Marchesi di Barolo with the dual intent of preserving its illustrious legacy and to proliferate it across all possible shores of the world. Today the family manages about 270 acres of vineyards in the Langhe region of Piedmont (Piemonte). Marchesi Di Barolo owns 110 acres of which 60 acres are in the commune of Barolo. The family produces wines made from Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto, Grignolino, Freisa, Braquetto d’aqui, Arneis, Cortese, and Moscato. [/su_expand]
