Ca' di Bruno - Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2019

Dedicated to Bruno Rivetti, an immediate ancestor of the family, Ca' di Bruno wines come from the Barbaresco and Barolo regions of Piedmont, Italy. The Rivetti family grows Barbera, Nebbiolo, Moscato. Since 2009 no pesticides or herbicides have been used, only the use of natural fertilizers, such as mixing organic cow manure with secondary products leftover from fermentation. The manual collection of worms in spring that feed on the buds, compromising production is also another hands on approach to sustainability in the vineyard. Ca' di Bruno take pride in vine health and vine management, vine age varies from 35 to 75 years old with each vintage having limits on yields per hectare to maximize the grape quality, the terroir and production areas. Ca' di Bruno only select the best quality fruit, with the use of natural fermentations and minimal addition of sulphur dioxide in the cellar.

Tasting Note: Red fruit aromas lead into a medium bodied palate of savoury fruit, cherry seed, and spice with fine dusty tannins.
