バローロ モンヴィリエーロ
Barolo Monvigliero
RedNebbiolo
Brangero's flagship wine, a single-vineyard Barolo from a parcel the family acquired in the celebrated Monvigliero cru of Verduno, on chalky 'marne tufacee bianche' soils widely regarded as one of Barolo's finest sites. The Nebbiolo grapes are hand-sorted, 100% destemmed, and undergo a long, fully extracted maceration in stainless steel with a submerged-cap regime over roughly 40 days, before ageing about 30 months in once-used French oak casks. The result is a lush, fruit-forward yet structured Barolo with fine tannin and lively acidity, expressive and approachable even in its youth.
ドルチェット・ディ・ディアーノ・ダルバ
Dolcetto di Diano d'Alba
RedDolcetto
Brangero's everyday red from the family's home appellation, Diano d'Alba — a village historically associated with Dolcetto more than any other in the Langhe. Ruby red with violet reflections, the wine shows an inviting nose of black cherry and berries, echoed on a fresh, food-friendly palate with the soft, almond-tinged finish typical of the variety.
ドルチェット・ディ・ディアーノ・ダルバ ソリ・カッシーナ・ラビーノ・ソプラーノ
Dolcetto di Diano d'Alba Sorì Cascina Rabino Soprano
RedDolcetto
A single-vineyard ('sorì', meaning a sun-facing slope in Piedmontese dialect) selection of Dolcetto di Diano d'Alba from the Cascina Rabino Soprano site, sitting above the family's home estate. More concentrated and structured than the base bottling, it shows ruby red color, an intense bouquet of cherry and dark berries, and a soft, fruit-driven palate lifted by fresh acidity.
バルベーラ・ダルバ・スペリオーレ ラ・ソプラーナ
Barbera d'Alba Superiore La Soprana
RedBarbera
Brangero's top Barbera bottling, aged to Superiore DOC standards (minimum 12 months ageing, including at least 4 months in barrel). Intense ruby red with violet reflections, it shows a nose dominated by red fruit and a hint of spice, leading to a full-bodied, round palate supported by the variety's characteristic pronounced acidity.
ネッビオーロ・ダルバ クワトロ・クローニ
Nebbiolo d'Alba Quattro Cloni
RedNebbiolo
A Nebbiolo d'Alba named for the four clones ('quattro cloni') planted in the vineyard it comes from. Ruby red with garnet reflections, it offers aromas of rose petal, cherry, and strawberry layered with woody, spicy, and earthy notes — a linear, medium-bodied expression of Nebbiolo with fine, persistent tannins, aged around 18 months in barrique followed by roughly 12 months in bottle before release.
ランゲ・アルネイス チェントフィーレ
Langhe Arneis Centofile
WhiteArneis
Brangero's white wine, 100% Arneis grown in Diano d'Alba under the Langhe Arneis DOC. Pale straw yellow, it offers delicate aromas of white peach, pear blossom, fresh almond, and chamomile, with a clean, slightly bitter finish and lovely mineral length. Fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel and bottled without fining or filtration to preserve freshness.
