The 2011 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Serraboella wraps around the palate with lovely density and depth. Raspberry jam, cloves, menthol and flowers flesh out in a supple, generous Barbera that will drink well right out of the gate. The Serraboella is aged in neutral French oak barrels. 2013-2018 Rating: 90 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Nov 2013)

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.
