    Winemaker Notes

    This magnificent wine has truly earned the coveted title of "Superiore." Crafted from only the very best Barbera grapes and pressed in low bins, it was attentively vinified from beginning to end. After soaking in the skins for an additional two weeks, the juice was aged for a year in oak barriques. Finally, a controlled refinement was insisted in the bottles before releasing the wine for sale.

    The result? Glorious structure and delicacy! The shimmering ruby red color and deep garnet shades show beautifully in the glass. You'll love the intense notes of mature red fruits and berries and the full, round, well-balanced body. It's warm and harmonious, and offers a very long finish. With its big, noble tannins, it's the perfect complement to all your favorite red meats.

    Cabutto, Italy
    In the land of Barolo, Cabutto "Tenuta La Volta", founded in 1920, produces the great red wines of the Langhe with experience, enthusiasm and care. The farm is maged by the Cabutto brothers, Osvaldo and Bruno.

    Due to the characteristics of the clayey-calcareous land, the altitude of vineyards (300-400 m above sea level) and the good temperature range, Cabutto produces complex, classy and long aging wines.

    Friendly and approachable, Barbera produces wines in a wide range of styles, from youthful, fresh and fruity to serious, structured and age-worthy. Piedmont is the most famous source of Barbera; those from Asti and Alba garner the most praise. Barbera actually can adapt to many climates and enjoys success in some New World regions. Somm Secret—In the past it wasn’t common or even accepted to age Barbera in oak but today both styles—oaked and unoaked—abound and in fact most Piedmontese producers today produce both styles.

    An historic village situated right in between the famous regions of Barolo and Barbaresco, Alba is also the name for the larger wine region surrounding the village.

    In a sense, “Alba” is a catch-all phrase, and includes the declassified Nebbiolo wines made in Barolo and Barbaresco, as well as the Nebbiolo grown just outside of these regions’ borders. In fact, Nebbiolo d’Alba is a softer, less tannic and more fruit-forward wine ready to drink within just a couple years of bottling. It is a great place to start if you want to begin to understand the grape. Likewise, the even broader category of Langhe Nebbiolo offers approachable and value-driven options as well.

    Barbera, planted alongside Nebbiolo in the surrounding hills, and referred to as Barbera d’Alba, takes on a more powerful and concentrated personality compared to its counterparts in Asti.

    Dolcetto is ubiquitous here and, known as Dolcetto d'Alba, can be found casually served alongside antipasti on the tables of Alba’s cafes and wine bars.

    Not surprisingly, given its location, Alba is recognized as one of Italy’s premiere culinary destinations and is the home of the fall truffle fair, which attracts visitors from worldwide every year.
