Descrizione

Barbera d'Alba Superiore DOC - Mugiot - Piazzo Comm. Armando from Mugiot, produced by the Piazzo Comm. Armando company, stands out for its authentic expression of the Langhe territory, renowned for the quality of its red wines. Obtained from carefully selected Barbera grapes, this label expresses a rich and enveloping aromatic complexity, where ripe wild berries and cherries blend with delicate spicy and balsamic notes.

The wine matures in oak barrels, which confer structure and softness, enhancing a remarkable balance between freshness and persistence. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with elegant and well-integrated tannins, accompanied by a lively acidity that guarantees longevity and drinkability.

Perfect paired with roasted meats, aged cheeses, and traditional Piedmontese dishes, this Barbera d'Alba Superiore represents a splendid synthesis between tradition and artisanal care, ideal for those who love an intense and harmonious wine.

Winery history

The Piazzo family began their activity in the hills of San Rocco Seno d’Elvio in the 1960s: the couple Armando Piazzo and Gemma Veglia invested in Nebbiolo vineyards and, beginning with the harvest that produced their first wine in 1979, the estate progressively expanded its range to become a leading name in the Langhe. Management later passed to the next generations, who have preserved the family character while introducing innovative practices in the vineyard and cellar.

Production philosophy

The winery combines an artisanal, family-run approach with respect for the land: vineyard care, attention to the Nebbiolo tradition, and the use of modern techniques to enhance the terroir expression of each cru.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are concentrated in the Langhe and Roero, with plots around Alba and in towns such as Mango, Neviglie, Guarene and Novello. The headquarters are located in the hamlet of San Rocco Seno d’Elvio, in the municipality of Alba.
