This Albarossa from Castello di Neive winery based in Piedmont is produced with 100% Albarossa grapes, grown in the company's vineyards: this vine was born from a blend of Nebbiolo and Barbera at the beginning of the last century. After the manual harvest in September we proceed with soft pressing of the bunches and subsequent vinification; the must then ferments in steel and then passes into large barrels for 12 months.
