Barbera from the same legendary vineyard that produces Monfortino—arguably Italy's greatest wine. Cascina Francia's 14 hectares in Serralunga d'Alba include approximately 5 hectares of Barbera, yielding one of the Langhe's most sought-after expressions of the grape. Giovanni Conterno purchased Francia in 1974; it has been the estate's heart ever since. Traditional large-oak aging brings supple richness to Barbera's natural vibrancy. When you drink this wine, you're tasting the same terroir that makes Monfortino.
