Barbaresco, Dosio

New

Wine of ancient origins, which has its roots in Roman times. Barbaresco takes its name from one of the municipalities where it is produced, a place where a large forest dedicated to the god Mars once stood. The Romans called this forest "barbaric silva " , that is, forest of the barbarians, from which the name Barbariscum, which later became Barbaresco, was derived from in the Middle Ages. The vineyards of Nebbiolo for Barbaresco of Dosio is located in the municipality of Alba, on the border with the municipality of Treiso, where decidedly marly soils give an aromatic wine as a whole, which has rested for over 24 months in large oak barrels before refine in the bottle. A structured red, with great expressive power, and capable of resisting over time
