| Vineyard | Campass |
The Barbera Campass comes from a single vineyard on the Serraboella Hill that is just behind the family property. It ripens slighty earlier and tends to give greater fruit richness. 18 months in oak, a mixture of larger 'botte' and barrique. The fruit profile for Campass tends toward the darker spectrum, black cherry, damson and blackberry. There are floral notes, violets and fragrant roses and a deep chocolatiness with a hint of wood spice. An incredibly satisfying complex glass from the masters of the Serraboella Hill. Drinking range: 2021 - 2030 L&S (Jan 2021)

Cigliuti
Sisters Claudia and Silvia Cigliuti took over the running of this vineyard from their father Renato. He was the first member of the family to begin bottling his own wine, back in 1964, roughly the same time as other pioneers in the region like Giacosa, but the family can trace its roots on this land back to the late eighteenth century.
Most of the vineyard and the winery is on the Serraboella hill, looking over Neive from the east, and it is the Barbaresco Serraboella which is the flagship wine of the estate. This hill, composed of calcareous marl and tufa soils, gives classic wines which combine the textural finesse of clay and the length and longevity of wines from limestone. The vineyards are tended by the family, by hand, with low yields to ensure full ripeness every year.
