Barbaresco 2013 Riserva Asili DOCG Ca’ Del Baio

The history

For four generations Ca’ del Baio has been a family affair, as is the tradition in the Langhe.

Nurtured and passed down from father to son, the vineyards surrounding the Grasso family farmhouse have been added to over time through marriage and acquisitions.

Today it is Giulio and Luciana who, together with their daughters Paola, Valentina and Federica, handle all the various areas of the business with passion and expertise, from the growing and vinification of the grapes, to hospitality and wine sales.

For the Grasso family, simplicity, a sense of sacrifice and the deep attachment they have to their land are pre-requisites for guaranteeing wines of quality.

Today the Ca’ del Baio estate takes in 25 hectares of vineyards in the villages of Barbaresco and Treiso, both of which are in the Barbaresco winegrowing area.

All estate-grown, their wines are made from a range of highly valued varieties, some typical of the area while others are more international: the whites include Moscato, Chardonnay and Riesling, and the reds Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto.

Almost all the wines are varietals.

Asili

The Asili cru is located in the village of Barbaresco

The denomination corresponds with the district of the same name.

Its size is average, with elevations varying between 210 and 290m a.s.l. Spreading out around the hill of the same name, the aspects of the vineyards on the cru range from south to west, right round to north, so they are more or less suited to vine growing.

Nebbiolo is the most widely-planted variety, followed by Barbera and Dolcetto.
