This Barbera is from the "Ca del Buc" family "cru" in Castagnole Lanze. The wine is nicely concentrated and full of character. A touch more racy with notes of game, this Barbera speaks of its origins in the Asti district as opposed to the more somber and elegant wines from the Alba zone. As with the Barbera dAlba, this Barbera dAsti is fermented in stainless steel for 10 days to two weeks and is racked into oak barrels and botti for 12 months before bottling.
