THE WINE

A small production of the highest quality that originates in Barbaresco, in the Cru Rio Sordo.

THE COMPANY
The agricultural company Cascina Bruciata, active since the early 1880s, is located in Barbaresco, in the Rio Sordo area. The company was purchased around 1880 by Giovanni Balbo when, following an arson fire, the then-owner decided to sell. Around the 1950s, the company took on an exclusively viticultural connotation, but realized its potential with Carlo Balbo, who, in the early 2000s, decided to produce and market wine. In 2016, it was acquired by the Abbona family, maintaining its full autonomy and identity.
