The Barbaresco DOCG Casot 2021 is produced from selected Nebbiolo grapes in the heart of the Langhe. A red wine of great elegance and character, which perfectly combines structure, balance and finesse. Ageing in wooden barrels lends it depth and complexity, resulting in a harmonious, long-lasting flavour that authentically reflects the character of Piedmont.
Appearance: A deep garnet red with subtle orange highlights that become more intense with age. Clear and brilliant, it conveys elegance and depth even at first glance.
Nose: A multi-layered and elegant bouquet with aromas of dried roses, violets, ripe cherries and red berries, complemented by spicy notes, tobacco, liquorice and subtle balsamic nuances. As it matures, the wine continues to gain in complexity without losing its harmony and elegance.

Wine production | After destemming, the grapes are fermented in temperature-controlled tanks at 26 °C, using gentle extraction methods to ensure the optimal development of aromas and polyphenols. The wine remains on the lees for around 25 days and is then aged for 24 months in French Allier oak barrels and large Slavonian oak barrels. After bottling, it undergoes a further 6 months of bottle ageing.
