About this wine

A rare find for Barbaresco enthusiasts wanting to explore lesser-seen crus.
Sommelier's Note

バルバレスコ アジリ
Barbaresco Asili
RedNebbiolo
A single-vineyard Barbaresco from Ca' del Baio's roughly 2-hectare holding in the celebrated Asili cru, one of Barbaresco's most historic crus, planted on blue clay and marl soils. The wine shows finesse and elegant, fine-grained tannins that express the true refinement of Nebbiolo, with aromas of dark cherry, violet, and rose.
バルバレスコ アジリ リゼルヴァ
Barbaresco Asili Riserva
RedNebbiolo
The Riserva selection from Ca' del Baio's Asili cru, made only in the best vintages with extended aging. Deeper and more structured than the normale bottling, it reveals dark fruit, dried rose, tobacco, and spice, with the refined tannic backbone typical of great Barbaresco.
バルバレスコ ヴァッレグランデ
Barbaresco Vallegrande
RedNebbiolo
Ca' del Baio's monopole bottling from the Vallegrande cru in Treiso, from vines planted in 1967 and held by the family since the 1970s. Grey calcareous-sandy marl soils with a western exposure give a wine of orange peel, violet, blackberry, and rhubarb character, dry and harmonious with a warm finish.
バルバレスコ ヴァッレグランデ リゼルヴァ ヴィーティ・ヴェッキエ
Barbaresco Vallegrande Riserva Viti Vecchie
RedNebbiolo
Debuting with the 2018 vintage, this old-vines Riserva from Vallegrande (plantings from 1963 to 2000) is the ultimate expression of the Grasso family's winemaking. Sixty days of submerged-cap maceration and 30 months in large oak casks, followed by 12 months in bottle, produce a garnet-red wine with sanguinella orange, violet, blackberry, rhubarb, and incense notes, velvety and warmly tannic.
バルバレスコ マルカリーニ
Barbaresco Marcarini
RedNebbiolo
A single-vineyard Barbaresco from the Marcarini cru in Treiso, a medium-to-large hillside site at 280-385 meters elevation with mostly eastern exposure. From vines around ten years old, it shows beguiling aromas of gingerbread, cherry, rose petal, and orange peel, generously textured and silky, with hints of oak and licorice closing on fine tannins.
バルバレスコ アウティンベイ
Barbaresco Autinbej
RedNebbiolo
A blend from the Grasso family's best parcels in the commune of Treiso, named after a Piedmontese dialect word meaning 'small vineyard' — a tribute to Giulio Grasso's late father Ernesto, who used the term to describe the finest vineyard exposures. Deep garnet red with old-pink reflections, intensely fruity with raspberry, jam, and violet aromas.
