Description:
This old winery in Agliano Terme is situated in Vianoce, an ancient-hamlet including a peasant house and a church. It was built during the first half of the 19th century by the Visconti Barons of Ornavasso, then, at the beginning of the 1920,s it was bought by the brothers Secondo and Serafino Trinchero while today it belongs to Renato and Ezio. Most of the vines are over fifty years with resultant smaller yields giving structure and quality to the wines. On a historical note in 1952 the first bottles of Barbera d'Asti were produced and Trinchero was given position number one in the wine-producer registry of Asti, while today the vineyards are organically farmed. Vigna del Noce, the flagship wine of the estate from an eighty-year-old plot of vines and only the best grapes of the vintage are selected to become Vigna del Noce. The fruit undergoes 45-day maceration on the skins, enjoys a leisurely fermentation in 50-hl Slavonian oak barrels and is aged for a further minimum of 2-3 years in large botte. The result of the work in the winery is a red with violet tints coloured wine displaying deep, very intense, complex and heady perfumes while a palate of pungent vitality is evident through to the long complex finish.

Barbera is from 20 year-old vines with the grapes fermented in cement vats and matured in old wooden barrels for another twelve months before bottling. Since the vines are very young, this Barbera is very fresh and fruity, but also lightly sour and tasty. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £73.40
