Note from the wine-maker:
Good expression of pure Barbera obtained from grapes selected and harvested by hand in the sun facing vineyards called "Braja", located on the Castle Estate.
Preserving 40% of the wine in fine woods for 6/8 months softens the acidity and gives a balanced tannicity and persistence.
Its juiciness and sweetness make La Braja a particularly gastronomic wine, suitable for the whole meal or before sitting down at the table to whet your appetite.
