Rosato
Made from the younger Barbera vines, it is a wine that they loved to make (and obviously drink themselves, hence why quantities are limited) and as a result has become part of the line-up.
Fresh with some lovely summer fruits on the pallet and a hint of salinity to keep you sipping

Sette
Sette is the brainchild of Gino Della Porta, a wine marketing expert from Tuscany, and Gianluca Colombo, a winemaker from Barolo. They farm biodynamically 5.5ha of vines (aged between 20 and 75 years) in Nizza Monferrato, possibly the most important cru for Barbera in Piemonte. Focused on a pure expression of the varietals and intrinsically traditional in style, the approach is definitely non-interventionist, but with an open mind when it comes to vessel for fermentation and ageing. The result is a collection of elegant wines respectful of the terroir, where depth, complexity and joyful drinking feel are perfectly married together.
