Cascina Val Del Prete d'Alba Serra de Gatti 2005

Cascina Val del Prete, or valley of the priest, takes its name from the exiled Bishop of Asti who lived there in 1850. In 1977 Bartolomeo Roagna and his wife Carolina bought the farm "Val del Prete" where they had worked as sharecroppers. The first thing they did was replace some grain and fruit with vines. The grapes are planted on south facing slopes in a splendid natural amphitheater. Over the years they have increased the area under vine. Their sons, Mario and Luigi, have entered the family business and take care of the vineyards. Cascina Val del Prete continues to be well received due to Mario’s commitment to great wine. Showing bright intense fruit, and loads of flavor, this Barbera is made from younger vines. It is an excellent value and it drinks well now. Drink with beef carpaccio, red wine braised meats, and chicken livers.
