Growing Conditions

The Barbera vine is certainly the most classic grown on the Asti hills. The grapes come from younger vineyards, characterized by predominantly marly and clayey soils, with the presence of quartz sand and silt capable of ensuring the wine a fragrant character, notable freshness and balance, as well as a broad expression of the bouquet.

Winemaking

The grapes, harvested exclusively by hand, are taken to the cellar and quickly destemmed and then delicately pressed. Fermentation with maceration takes place at a controlled temperature and frequent pumping over allows the must to be enriched with all the polyphenolic compounds of the skins. At the end of fermentation and at an optimal extraction level, racking is carried out.

Aging

Barbera d'Asti Rurè ages only in stainless steel tanks in order to enhance the varietal fruity notes.

Appearance

The color is intense ruby red, with light purple hues.

Food Pairing

This is a classic wine for the whole meal because it is fresh and well-bodied, and has a harmonious fragrance. It is the ideal companion for delicious appetizers, first courses, soups, and fresh cheeses.
