Casali del Barone Barbera Piemonte DOC is an expressive red wine from Piemonte, crafted to showcase the varietal character of Barbera. The grapes are hand-harvested and meticulously sorted in the cellar to ensure only the best fruit is used. Fermentation occurs at controlled temperatures, followed by a 10-day maceration on the skins with daily pumping over to extract colour, flavour, and structure. The wine is then aged in large wooden barrels for three months, allowing the flavours to integrate and soften.
