From Conterno’s Cascina Francia estate in Serralunga d’Alba, this Barbera comes from the same historic property that anchors the domaine’s Barolo program. Roberto Conterno farms and vinifies Barbera with the same seriousness as Nebbiolo, making this one of Piedmont’s benchmark examples of the variety.
