Descrizione

The Barbaresco DOCG of Cà del Baio is born in one of the most famous areas of Piedmont, a land suited for the cultivation of Nebbiolo, the flagship grape of this renowned territory. The vineyards overlook gentle hills, exposed to an ideal microclimate that favors the optimal ripening of the grapes, allowing the complexity and finesse typical of Barbaresco to be best expressed.

This wine stands out for careful aging, which generally involves a long period in wooden barrels, giving structure and refinement without ever overpowering the elegance of the fruit. In the glass, it offers a broad and deep bouquet, intertwining scents of withered rose, cherry, aromatic herbs, and a delicate spiciness of licorice and tobacco. On the palate, it is harmonious, with velvety tannins and persistence that invites continued tasting.

The Barbaresco Asili of Cà del Baio is ideal to accompany rich and structured dishes of Piedmontese cuisine, such as braised meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, enhancing every single nuance of flavor with its complexity and balance.

Winery history

The Grasso family has been connected to these hills for generations: Giuseppe Grasso's arrival in Treiso is documented in 1870, and in the following decades the family progressively selected and vinified individual parcels. In the 1980s and 2000s the winery refined the separation of grapes by cru, and in 2008 introduced experiments with Riesling. The revival and modern visibility of the winery are linked to the work of Giulio Grasso, and today management also involves the family's daughters.

Production philosophy

It favors a sustainable approach to viticulture, eliminating chemical weed control, using cover crops, and prioritizing biodiversity and soil conservation. In the cellar, fermentations with indigenous yeasts are encouraged and the use of sulfites is limited to preserve the character of the vintages and their ageing potential.

Terroir and vineyards

The estate and most of its vineyards are located in Treiso, near Barbaresco and not far from Neive. The estate's vineyards fall within historic crus such as Vallegrande, Asili, Pora, Marcarini, Ferrere and Trestelle; the soils are typically calcareous marls that characterize the Barbaresco area.

Awards and recognitions

Giulio Grasso was named "Winemaker of the Year" by the Gambero Rosso guide.
