Ca' Viola - Dolcetto Barturot 2005 Magnum

First produced in 1991, Barturot is the historic product of the Ca' Viola line. At the beginning of the business, I had my eye on this wonderful vineyard in Montelupo, and I just knew that from those rows of vines something truly special could be born. I managed to rent the vineyard and thanks to the help of friends and the advice of established producers in the Langhe, my dream became a reality. To this day, the Barturot label is one of the key emblems of our winery.
