Bel Colle Barbaresco DOCG Convivio 2020 campo-de-borja Samuel SmithThe tiny Barbaresco district includes the four villages of Barbaresco, Neive, Treiso and San Rocco. Barbaresco is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, grown in the DOCG Barbarescos district. Grapes are grown from 200 to 400 meters above sea level (600 to 1300 feet) on steep, sunny facing hills. On the nose, the bouquet brings the typical notes of red fruits, plums and cherries. On the palate, it is delicate, velvety and well balanced with its fresh acidity.
