Advice to enjoy this wine at its best.

Let’s talk about Vallegrande Riserva - Barbaresco DOCG - Cà del Baio - Magnum

More questions

Vallegrande Riserva di Cà del Baio is a Barbaresco DOCG that embodies the elegance and complexity typical of the Langhe, cultivated on soils rich in limestone and marl that give finesse to the nebbiolo used. This refined vintage is presented with careful aging in oak barrels that enrich its structure without overpowering the varietal aromas.

In the glass, it offers an intense garnet red color, with orange reflections that foretell a long evolution. On the nose, scents of violet, ripe cherry, and sweet spices emerge, accompanied by hints of tobacco and licorice, typical of long maturation. The sip is enveloping, tannic yet elegant, well balanced by a lively acidity that provides freshness and momentum, making it ideal for long aging.

A wine that pairs magnificently with red meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses, but can also surprise with mushroom or truffle-based dishes, enhancing their Piedmontese soul with grace and depth. Perfect for important occasions and moments of thoughtful tasting.

The winery

Ca' del Baio

PiemonteItaliaSince 1870

Family-run winery based in Treiso (CN), producing wines from the Langhe with a focus on Barbaresco crus and sustainable viticultural practices.
Grape varieties
Nebbiolo, Chardonnay, Dolcetto, Barbera, Riesling, Moscato
  • Family-run winery
  • Based in Treiso, with vineyards in the Barbaresco crus.
  • Adherence to the principles of the Green Experience project for sustainable viticulture
  • Use of native yeasts and limited use of sulfites in the cellar.
The story
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 recognition
Giulio Grasso was named "Winemaker of the Year" by the Gambero Rosso guide.
