ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
After his father’s estate was divided, Renato established his own estate in the Arborina area in 2005. The vineyards stand in the prized La Morra crus of Rocche dell’Annunziata, Arborina and Pozzo. The cellar is extremely modern and equipped with vinification vats with temperature control and every year 30% of the barriques (exclusively medium toasted French oak) are replaced with new ones. The estate is now run by Renato together with his son Stefano. Renato is a perfectionist in the vineyards: no chemical products are sprayed, only copper and sulphur is used, grass is left on the aisles between the rows of vines and then it is tilled into the soil in the winter, which means that no herbicides nor fertilizers are used either. He very carefully drops fruit at the end of July and shortly before the harvest so that the clusters that are picked are perfect. The result is certainly outstanding: the single vineyard Barbera Vigna Pozzo joins the half dozen world class wines produced by this varietal.
