Descrizione

Barbera d’Asti Superiore DOCG - Luna e I Falo’ - Vite Colte by Luna e I Falò, produced by Vite Colte in the Piedmont hills, is a tribute to the elegance of one of the most representative grape varieties of the Asti region. Vigorous and with an intense ruby color, this wine is made from carefully selected Barbera grapes, capable of expressing the typicality of the terroir rich in limestone and clay. The aging, carried out mainly in oak barrels, gives this Barbera a well-defined structure and harmony between lively acidity and soft tannins.

On the nose, it opens with aromas of ripe cherry, plum, and spicy hints of black pepper and licorice, while on the palate freshness and sapidity balance with a persistent and enveloping finish. Perfect paired with red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, this Barbera d’Asti Superiore is a glass able to tell the Piedmontese tradition with a contemporary touch.

Winery history

Vite Colte was established as a project focused on quality selection linked to the historic cooperative Terre da Vino. The initiative was launched in 2010, and the Vite Colte range of wines was brought to market a few years later, with the first bottlings publicly available from the mid-2010s.

Production philosophy

The production philosophy places the vineyard at the center: shared agronomic protocols with member growers to ensure low yields, manual canopy management, hand harvesting and careful attention to grape ripeness. The aim is a consistent quality standard through integrated pest management and areas of the vineyard in conversion to, or managed under, organic farming.

Terroir and vineyards

Based in Barolo, with vineyards and sourcing distributed across the Langhe hills, in the Barolo and Barbaresco areas and in other Piedmontese zones suited to viticulture such as Gavi, Monferrato, Moscato d'Asti and Roero.
