Lorenzo Corino | Case Corini Barla Barbera Natural Wine Organic Biodynamic
You never had a Barbera like this! Made from 95 year old Barbera vineyard, with some small percentage of other varieties planted over the years in the vineyard. This all natural wine has intense aromas of brandied cherries and a richly textured, delicious dark fruit taste with right balance of fruit, acidity and tannins. Barla is the antique name of the vineyard which used to be the land of an old convent. After a gentle crushing, fermentation starts with native yeast fermentation and wines are left with skin contact for 6-7 weeks, followed by about 36 months of aging in wooden barrels.
As with all of Case Corini wines, this is a 00 wine, nothing added, nothing removed, no yeast, no sulphites added, organic, biodynamic, vegan. In other words, all natural wine.

Lorenzo Corino and his son Guido, along with his daughter Luisa, are 6th generation family of natural wine grower-makers, who started cultivating and making wine in 1846. Their property sits in between Alba and Asti at 260m. They make really tasty barbera and nebbiolo wines, and have recently introduced Orange Moscato wines to their portfolio. Making natural wines since 1967, Lorenzo Corino has patented the Corino Method for natural wine cultivation and production. As quoted by a customer ' Their wine is not an exaggeration to say that the most popular now among Italian natural wine lovers.' As with all natural wines, especially those of Lorenzo Corino, we suggest letting them breathe before tasting.
