Barbera d'Alba Auream D.O.C.

The Azienda La Rachilana is located in the municipality of Monforte d'Alba in the province of Cuneo, a highly regarded area with a long-standing history in wine production. Here, for generations, the Marengo family has carried on the vineyard work with dedication, commitment and respect for the land, and it is here that Barbera d'Alba Auream D.O.C. is produced. This is the third generation of a family story that began in 1964 when, after years of hard work as sharecroppers, grandfather Bartolomeo decided to open his own business. Yet the values remain the same: to produce a good, genuine quality wine. From generation to generation, everyone takes part in the work at the winery with passion and attachment to their own land. Here, a careful selection of the best grapes is made to produce wines true to the importance of quality over quantity. The winery takes part in the âThe Green Experienceâ project, where respect for the environment is essential and herbicides and insecticides have been eliminated.
