Il Masio

Immediately after harvest, the wine macerates for 14-23 days in a steel tank and undergoes alcoholic fermentation in the same tank. Malolactic fermentation then occurs during aging in oak barrels for 18 months, with 35% in new and 65% in old barrels. The Nebbiolo and Barbera grapes are vinified separately and only blended after barrel aging, resulting in a wine where Nebbiolo brings a slightly tighter structure compared to a pure Barbera.
