Barbaresco DOCG Ronchi

Barbaresco DOCG Ronchi

The Barbaresco DOCG 2020 from Azienda Agricola Ronchi is a red wine made from the finest Nebbiolo grapes. It represents the highest expression of Piedmontese winemaking.

Grape variety: 100% Nebbiolo
Vineyards: Municipality of Barbaresco, in the geographic mention "Ronchi" and a small vineyard near the farmhouse
Soil: marl and calcareous soil, with clay infiltrations, moderately compact

Farming: almost entirely manual cultivation of the rows planted respecting the contours. The pruning method is traditional Guyot with modifications using a bow leaving 8-10 buds on the fruiting cane. The autumnal tilling of the soil is done in alternate rows, sowing legumes and other cover crops. No chemical fertilization or herbicide is practiced. The anti-parasitic treatments are based on integrated pest management and the method of sexual confusion with pheromones against the vine moth.
Harvest: grapes are hand-picked generally between the end of September and the beginning of October.
Winemaking: begins with the destemming and gentle crushing of the bunches. Fermentation occurs at controlled temperature around 28-30° C in steel containers. Maceration with the skins lasts for 12-15 days.
Aging: aging takes place partly in barrique and partly in large wood for about 22-24 months followed by bottling in May-June of the third year after the harvest. This is followed by an adequate refinement in the bottle.
