About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from the estate's organically farmed vineyards in Olivola, in the Ghenza Valley.

Vinification

Harvest is entirely by hand, when the grapes reach optimal ripeness. Barbera and Grignolino are co-fermented, starting spontaneously with native yeasts in fiberglass tanks, without temperature control.

Ageing

The wine ages in the same fiberglass tanks. It is bottled without fining, filtration or added sulfur.

Tasting profile

Simple and very easy to drink, suited to drinking straight away.

Label / history

A natural wine made by the family-run Cascina Gasparda estate.
