This Barbera comes from the locality "Caj" located in the territory of Alba, a hilly area at an average height of 380 meters above sea level with lean soil, calcareous marl, facing South- South-West; for a total of 3.96 Ha.

The "organic vineyards" consist exclusively of Barbera with different clonal materials, of Italian origin, on rootstocks suitable for this type of soil (420A); the cultivation is Guyot with 5,000 vines per hectare.

The vinification foresees a maceration of 11 days, with several daily pumping over and a fermentation at a constant and controlled temperature. After resting in stainless steel tanks, the wine ages for about 8 months in 30 HL barrels. followed by aging in bottle for at least 3 months.

It is an intense ruby red wine. Very vinous nose with hints of violet and black cherry sensation in the mouth, dry, warm with spicy notes, light vanilla and red fruit pulp. A Barbera with all its most typical characteristics: fresh and ripe fruit, fresh acidity that makes it a perfect wine for many accompaniments from first courses to cheeses.
