Garitta di Cascina Garitina is a red wine from Monferrato , more precisely from Castel Boglione , in the province of Asti .
Here the Morino family owns 26 hectares in which they only grow red berried grapes , with particular attention to Barbera , which makes up 85% of the vineyards .
Garitta di Cascina Garitina is a Barbera in purity - that is made exclusively from Barbera grapes without other cuts of different vines - produced with artisanal methods by a family of generations of winemakers whose only goal is to create wines that are able to fully express the identity of the territory .
The result is a tasty and dynamic Barbera , with an enveloping fruit , absolutely worth trying .
Because it is a Barbera made by those who have been involved in producing Barbera for decades . An idea of the vine that aims at the representation of the territory , created by those who have lived the territory for generations. A winery that is not simply a cellar, but a coherent fusion of past and future .
The first characteristics of Barbera are freshness and acidity , essential components for a wine suitable for aging .
So, if you like to drink it young , you will be struck by the immediacy of this wine , if instead you like to leave it for a while in the cellar , you can have fun discovering the evolution of aromas and flavors .
In any case, this Garitta di Cascina Garitina is excellent to drink with stuffed pasta or meat-based main courses. But we, who like to follow the customs of the places of production, also very gladly drink it as an aperitif .
It is a red wine with good structure , drink it at 16 ° -18 ° .
After the manual harvest , the grapes are taken to the cellar , where a cold pre-fermentation maceration is carried out for four days (suitable for the extraction of aromas). After this first phase, the actual fermentation begins. The wine obtained is aged for a few months exclusively in steel , before being bottled without any filtration .
