This single vineyard barbera from the Canavese area of Northern Piedmont was given to Briamara producer’s grandfather in 1880 by don Luigi Bianco, a ‘zio prete’, uncle priest, hence the name of the wine in local dialect ‘barba preve.’
This red wine has fresh and fruity sour cherry aromas and taste with a bit of cinnamon. Thanks to refining in the Slavonia oak tonneau, the wine becomes well-structured and complex. But the REAL thanks go to don Luigi!
Small yield of 2,500 x year makes this a precious limited production.

Our story begins in 1931 when grandfather Silvio, in the midst of his youth, replaces the old family vineyard with Erbaluce.
Our grandfather was among the first in 1967 to request the DOC for Erbaluce. It should be known that Erbaluce, although very limited territorially and not so well known, was among the first Italian wines to request and obtain the DOC!
