Scarzella Barbera d'Asti Superiore DOCG
After having aged for 18 months in big barrel, our version of Barbera d'Asti Superiore is a wine of great class and expressiveness. This Barbera is produced by accurately selecting the best bunches, they are in fact the last grapes to be hand-picked. A very gentle crushing follows and the fermentation is carried out in steel tanks at controlled temperature. After a wild malolactic ferment, its long period of maturation in 'botte grande' begins. Intense ruby red color, the nose is direct with hints of red berries, ripe cherries, liquorice and menthol notes. On the palate the acidity is distinct and brilliant, tannins are soft and elegant. A powerful wine, but also of immediate pleasure, which best describes the strong connection between us and the landscape. To be enjoyed right now or to be left to rest for several years.

Boroli Barbera D'Alba
Boroli Barbera d’Alba Langhe DOC is the estate’s take on Barbera in its pure, everyday guise, drawn from hillside vineyards around Alba that sit on classic clay-limestone soils with good exposure and ventilation. The fruit is picked by hand, fermented in stainless steel and then given a short maturation in large French oak (typically around six months), a regime that polishes texture while keeping Barbera’s natural freshness front and centre. In the glass, recent releases show bright ruby colour and aromas of red cherry, raspberry and blackberry compote with hints of violet, sweet spice and a gentle earthy undertone, carried by soft tannins and vibrant acidity. It is a supple, medium-bodied Barbera built for early drinking, offering plenty of fruit and regional character without heaviness and sitting neatly alongside Boroli’s more structured Nebbiolo and Barolo wines.
