Renzo Seghesio has worn many shoes, farmer and winemaker, cartographer and former mayor of Monforte d’Alba: upon studying winemaking in Alba, Renzo has received a master's degree in biology from the University of Turin and, since returning to Monforte in the 1960s and founding his winery, his intent and focus have been dedicated to the single goal of growing and selecting the best possible fruit from the unique terroir of the family parcels.
Since 1968 Renzo has gone from making his first wine in his family's garage to producing over 70.000 bottles per year from the own-grown grapes of the family estates currently spanning over 14 hectares of land
750 mlDestemmed and delicately crushed with up to 30% whole berry in the vats, the Barbera undergoes fermentation with Saccharomyces pombe yeasts and a separation of the liquid and solid portions in the initial stages. After 16 days, the wine is racked and aging continues in tonneaux (Allier and Nevers) for 5 months, then Slavonian oak barrels (Garbellotto, 3.200 lt) for an additional 5 months
The Barbera d’Alba is fresh, long and intense: a balanced and perfectly integrated acidity brings to the fore fine notes of plum and red berries
