2022 TRE (Merlot 40% - Barbera 30% - Nebbiolo 30%)

This blend of Merlot (40%), Barbera (30%), and Nebbiolo (30%) is one of those wines that quietly wins you over. Nothing flashy, just a very well-put-together red. The nose is fruity and expressive, full of ripe red and dark berries, with a gentle dusting of spice that keeps things lively and engaging. It’s the kind of bottle that feels equally at home on a casual table or poured with a bit of intention.

Region:  Langhe & Monferrato, Piemonte

Appellation:  Vino Rosso

Varietal/Blend:  40% Merlot, 30% Barbera, 30% Nebbiolo

ABV:  15%

Vineyard:  Barbera and Merlot are grown in Agliano Terme, where gently sloping hills and white, clay-rich soils contribute freshness, while Nebbiolo comes from Castagnole Monferrato, with calcareous-clay soils that add structure. All grapes are hand-harvested in small boxes between late September and October, each variety picked at optimal maturity.

Cellar: The three varieties are vinified separately, with fermentation and skin maceration lasting around 15 days at 27–28 °C. Each wine is aged for 12 months in French Allier barriques before blending, then rested in bottle for six months prior to release.

CSPC:  142509
