Vietti – Barbera d’Alba Vigna Vecchia Scarrone – 2013

We are talking about the end of the 1800s, when Carlo Vietti founded the company in the small town of Castiglione Falletto, immediately realizing the great potential that this area could have since 1919, his son Mario began producing the first wines. However, the history of the winery was marked by the great oenologist Alfredo Currado, the first ever to vinify the individual vineyards individually and in 1961 the Barolo “Rocche di Castiglione” was released on the market.
Today the company is one of the most important in the entire Barolo area, in fact since 2016 it was bought by the American Krause Holdings, thus allowing the family to expand their heritage while continuing to produce wines of great territoriality and value.
Barbera produced with grapes from the oldest part of the Scarrone vineyard, located in the municipality of Castiglione Falletto. The work in the vineyard is obsessive, only the best bunches are selected to obtain a wine of excellent quality. A bottle that will make you understand the difference between a normal barbera and a great barbera! 2013, a vintage for true connoisseurs, wines with character, austere, complex, deep and with great aging power.
