THE WINE
The Barbera d'Asti 'Montebruna' by Braida originates from the homonymous vineyard located in Rocchetta Tanaro, soils rich in clay and sand that ensure great aromaticity, intensity, and structure to the wine. An additional enhancement occurs during the evolution in large oak barrels for 12 months. Bouquet of intense notes of cherry and small red fruits, deep, full, harmonious, elegant, and fragrant taste. A Barbera d'Asti of great quality and with a very interesting quality/price ratio.
No other winery is identified with a grape variety like Braida is with barbera. The work that Giacomo Bologna has carried out in recent decades is unparalleled and has paved the way for an entire generation of winemakers who, after him, have started to work confidently with this previously undervalued variety. It can be said that it was Giacomo Bologna, with “Bricco dell’Uccellone” and other wines that have made the history of Italian winemaking, who overturned the most common beliefs about barbera. By studying soils and exposures, waiting for complete ripening, and processing it in the best way in the cellar, Giacomo Bologna managed to demonstrate the quality, finesse, and especially the longevity that was possible to achieve by vinifying barbera grapes.
Today, the company represents the faithful image of Giacomo's philosophy, of his way of understanding life, the land, wine, and relationships with friends. His children Raffaella and Giuseppe, both winemakers, constitute the third generation of the “Braida”, and are united by the dream and enthusiasm to continue the noble and quality conquest of Barbera initiated by their father.
With over sixty hectares of vineyards, the company has its rows mainly located in the lands of Rocchetta Tanaro, to which over the years have been added plots in Castelnuovo Calcea, Costiglione d’Asti, Mango d’Alba, and Trezzo Tinella. Grapes cultivated and harvested in highly suitable areas for viticulture are processed in the cellar with the use of the most modern and sophisticated winemaking technologies, always employed in full respect of the oldest traditions.
Thus, for years, the family Braida has been synonymous with Italian drinking around the world, thanks to labels that, in addition to “Bricco dell’Uccellone”, are expressed in names such as “Montebruna”, “La Monella”, “Il Baciale’”, “Bricco della Bigotta” and all the others that follow. Wines born under the sign of the resurgence of barbera, and today a symbol of the highest enological excellence in Piedmont and Italy.
