100% Moscato. Bianchdusèt is a unique and "accidental" wine. A tank of Moscato destined for Moscato d'Asti went too far in its fermentation to be used for it. The wine was left untouched in the tank, where it fermented to complete dryness over 2 years and developed a layer of flor over its surface...

100% Barbera. Though the calling card of Bera is their Moscato d'Asti, they also grow Barbera in the Canelli hills of Piedmont. Ronco di Malo is the parcel of the oldest Barbera vines, which average 50 years (formerly a much higher number but the the 80-year-old vines had to be replaced not long...

Arneis/Cortese/Sauvignon Blanc/Favorita/Vermentino. The name "Arcese" is a whimsical mash-up of Arneis and Cortese, historically the main base of this field-blend white.

From a 0.6-hectare parcel in Monforte (Perno), planted in 1998 with western exposure at 390m above sea level. The grapes were destemmed and crushed; fermentation occurred spontaneously in cement vats, with maceration lasting around 20 days with pumpovers. After malolactic, the wine was racked in...

Schiavenza’s 0.9 hectares in the Prapò cru are located at 350m above sea level, with southeast exposure; the vines were planted in 1993.  Of all their crus, this is the one in which the soil is most representative of Serralunga: its high percentage of light-colored limestone naturally limits yields...

2019 was the debut of Barolo Perno, from the Santo Stefano di Perno sub-section, facing east, with Arenarie di Diano d'Alba sandstones, more sandy than Schiavenza's Serralunga plots. This makes for a somewhat more lithe Barolo. A rare chance to taste a Barolo at 13.5% without losing typicity!

Sourced from 2.1ha of different parcels (mainly the crus of Cerrati and Meriame) all located in the village of Serralunga d'Alba, at altitudes of 360-400m above sea level; the vineyards have south-east and west exposures, and are composed mostly of calcareous and tufaceous soil. Cover crops such...

It lies at high elevation and just outside of the Valdobiaddene DOCG, hence the IGT Colli Trevigiani classification...

This single-vineyard cru is La Gerla’s flagship wine. Made in select years, this comes entirely from a one-hectare parcel of old vines from the original Biondi-Santi site dating back to the early 1960s, located between 270 and 320 meters above sea level, facing northeast. This hillside vineyard...
