A balance of unique elements
The territory is one of the fundamental ingredients that contributes to the success of a high-quality wine. The Langhe, consisting of an extensive system of hills, are the ideal place for the growth of a fine vine: thanks to the strategic position, the altitude, the particular exposure and the rich composition of the soil. A balance of elements that gives the grapes a rich and unmistakable flavor.
THE VINEYARD:
MONTELUPO
Montelupo hosts in the land of its vast slopes a large part of the CaViola vineyards: 11 hectares that rest on a soil rich in clayey calcareous marl and sandstone at 400 meters above sea level that gives the wines great structure, complexity, and longevity. From the vineyards of Montelupo the following selections are obtained: Dolcetto d'Alba Barturot, Dolcetto d'Alba Vilot, Barbera d'Alba Bric du Luv, Barbera d'Alba Brichet and Langhe Nebbiolo.
THE WINE:
Produced for the first time in 1996, it is the younger brother of the more famous Barturot. In the company philosophy it is a wine with a lively and ready drink, the archetype of the everyday wine. It has a deep ruby red color. The nose plays on fresh fruity notes and lets a pleasant hint of blackberry shine through on the finish. In the mouth it is agile, very smooth and balanced. Freshness and pleasantness dominate in every phase of the drink and make this Dolcetto dynamic and suitable for all palates. Suggested serving temperature: 14-15° C
