“Tre Roveri” Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG Tre Roveri takes its name from three old oak trees found on the property and is a selection from some of the oldest vines on the estate. The designation Superiore indicates a wine with slightly higher alcohol (minimum 12.5%.) Tre Roveri is aged for 12 months in 500L French tonneaux and 3,500L Slavonian “botti grandi” (large oak casks.)

“Epico” Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG Epico (“Epic,” or Pico without the “E”) is a uniquely made wine. The grapes are the last of the Barberas on the property to be picked and 50% of the harvest is dried in wooden boxes for a short period. The grapes go through a 10 – 12 day maceration before being vinified and aged in 50% new French barriques.
